PES – Scientific Anchors 01

 Emotional Synchrony as Distributed Material Logic

Introduction

The PES (Parallel Emotional Systems) framework evolves from a simple artistic intuition into a structural model where painting, perception, and emotion operate as interconnected fields rather than isolated phenomena.

Recent developments in psychology and computational affect theory describe emotional synchrony as a distributed system emerging between individuals rather than inside them.

Within PES, this idea is extended beyond social interaction into material perception

Emotional Synchrony Beyond the Social Field

In contemporary research, emotional synchrony refers to the alignment of affective states across individuals during collective experiences.

However, this model can be extended:

In PES, synchrony is not limited to social bodies — it becomes a perceptual condition embedded in material systems.

Painting is therefore not representation, but a field where perception itself becomes synchronized through matter.

Material as a Carrier of Distributed Emotion
In this perspective, material is no longer passive.
Pigment, surface, erosion, and layering function as carriers of temporal and emotional distribution.
The painting becomes a system where meaning is not located in a single point, but dispersed across its entire structure.

Abstraction as Synchronization Field
If emotional synchrony emerges between people, abstraction may operate as a visual system that allows synchrony to emerge within perception itself.
The viewer is not interpreting an image — they are entering a field of distributed tension.

Conclusion
Can painting be understood as a synchronization system rather than an image-making practice?
And if so, does abstraction function as a technology of perceptual alignment?
