Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are configured to receive a recording of an expression of a content provider in response to a digital environment. The expression can be based on at least one of gestures, body movement, speech, and sounds of the content provider. An animation can be based on the recording. A reaction based on the animation can be presented to a user in the digital environment.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are configured to receive detected information relating to user interaction by a user in a digital environment directed at a concept associated with text-based content.
