Unknown Map of Words of Laughter
A meaning of a word can expand infinitely, but we are often forget its possibility. In order to find out how a single word can expand, the word 'laughter' and its pronouns and proverbs was analysed then visualized as in a form of a map. On the vertical axis character of laughter (positive to negative) was plotted where on the horizontal axis the sound of laughter (in decibel from 0-140db) was plotted. In a form of an ancient map of the western world, the words of laughter from various countries were represented as mountains and rivers. In addition, when discovering a word for laughter a flag was placed on a appropriate location. This world may not exist, but the moment we call it out, it will be our frontier.
