The woman who tracked her own tears

From tissues to spreadsheets

A few things about Robin Weis.

She's a user experience designer.

She's interested in self-tracking.

And she's not afraid to cry.  

"I tracked crying for a year and a half in order to understand the sorts of things that make me cry and why."  

For 589 days she tracked the frequency, duration, intensity, and cause of her crying. And she made some gorgeous visuals out of the data.
