Have you ever felt a sudden, passing sensation of excitement, a shudder of emotion from an epic moment of a song, or a climax of a movie? That is what is called "frisson", a word rooted from the French word meaning "Goosebumps" or "Shiver". It has been linked to rises in dopamine levels.

Feel free to discuss frisson, and post links that give you some really great vibes. :)

A friend of mine did a digital painting of this a couple months ago.
