Visualizing Brain Activity Through Augmented Reality Projections

By Moss & Fog1 min read

An ambitious and fascinating project by Refik Anadol is meant to visualize the way brain activity looks. Utilizing sculpture, projections and augmented reality, Anadol is able to create a fascinating visualization of how our brains actually capture and store memories. It’s a very high tech and fitting way to showcase human brain activity. ⚡️⚡️ Via Colossal:

“Anadol gathers data on the neural mechanisms of cognitive control from an EEG (electroencephalogram) that measures changes in brain wave activity and provides evidence of how the brain functions over time. These data sets constitute the building blocks for the unique algorithms that the artist needs for the multi-dimensional visual structures on display.”
