Beautiful About the Brain
A lecture-performance on perception with a Neuromandala demonstration and voluntary audience participation.
All programmesQuestion and programme
The lecture combines a conversation about the brain, perception and creativity with a live neurointerface demonstration. The facilitator uses one interface; volunteers take turns with a second. Artistic examples and audience questions help distinguish a signal from its interpretation. The lecture has been presented at Green Door, HSE’s Institute for Creative Industries Development and Ashram.
- Perception, attention and creativity

Live demonstration
The facilitator and volunteers observe generative visuals; attending does not mean every audience member is measured.
