BRAINSTORMING: EMPATHY
by Victoria Vesna
A performance/experience work created in close collaboration with neuroscientist
Mark Cohen.
Exploring the possibilities of brain to brain communication as a part of a larger area
of research into the physical associates of mental processes such as emotions and
feelings, this has evolved to include the idea of embodied intelligence in the form
of an octopus crown worn by participants.
