Imagine you've had a hard day, feeling
very negative and depressed. You go
home and flop down on the couch. FIbers
embedded in the fabric are activated by
your weight, and sense body temperature,
heart rate, skin moisture, and
restlessness. Based on a ratio of these
factors, it chooses
music and volume level
to make you feel better/happier, based on
your most played songs, genres, and an
analysis of the intensity of the music. For
me, listening to "the right song" can do
wonders for a bad mood, and can even
make you cry under the right
circumstances. If it senses you've fallen
asleep, it will lower the music and choose
some soothing ambient wave crashings or
fields of grass in the wind to put you at
ease.

A chair that makes you cry? I think the Spanish Inquisition used those. Or maybe it was the dentist's waiting room. |

How about a chair with a TV remote buiilt into it that senses when I am disgusted with what I am watching and changes the channel to find something interesting and entertaining... oh, wait. I forgot it's television we're talking about. Sorry.
