A wall hanging Tamagachi you must feed bio data and intentionality to ensure it doesn't annoy you.

Description
Finding time to be intentional or playful can be challenging, and often the spontaneity of spending a moment on something frivolous can evade us. I wanted to create an animal that lived on your wall and demanded play in intermittent cycles to break up the monotony of the day. The Wall Bear uses blood oxygen levels, or when set to a different mode uses the sensor as a small theremin to give you an opportunity to have more fun with the notes. If you do not feed it it will sonically nudge you to a more playful place, the hope being that an air of seriousness can be dislodged.
Originally meant to incite meditative practice the Wall Bear was shifted to take on a more childlike personality, the action becomes more about preoccupying a restless child than finding a moment of calm. Hopefully that restless child is you, and in this moment of preoccupation you can find a lightness in your day, a new way of experiencing time, and a new enjoyment for the frivolous.
