DEM Cubes

DEM (Dynamic Embodied Metaphor) Cubes are a set of research artifacts built for evaluating a hypothetical study (the study was never run). The concept was built on the work of previous researchers who suggest that many parts of language are structured around low-level psychological construct called image schemata. I planned to extend previous research from cubes which embodied metaphors statically (i.e. a rough cube and a smooth cube) to cubes which can change between a binary metaphor dynamically.
