looking at #ourcities with #brains
Our perceptions of urban environments often occur in an instant, and the interaction between people and urban environments quietly unfolds in a repetitive cycle of vision-brain-cognition.
Brain Visions focuses on the intangible interactions between people and the environment in young, high-density cities like Shenzhen, allowing us to see spatial interactions that are crucial for the brain to process environmental information but are not directly perceptible to the human eye.
Emerging technologies like EEG (electroencephalography) use data visualization to display the interactions between people and spaces, as well as the complex systems of spaces, showing how the visual stimuli from perceived architectural environments affect the brain’s processing of cognitive load and stress levels, helping us to better understand the human brain’s response to architecture and urban environments.
Tell me what you see.
Your brain sees much more than your eyes.
Brain Visions is an exploration of intangible human-environment interactions in young high-density such as Shenzhen. Visual stimuli perceived through built environments can have a significant impact on how our brain processes them in terms of cognitive load and stress levels. The detection of bio- signals such as Electroencephalogram (EEG) has the potential to support a deeper understanding of the reaction process between human brains and the built environment.
Environments are explored through different lenses, beyond what it’s normally perceived and seen; new technology is key for potential future support in data visualization related to spatial complexities as interactive systems, allowing us to see what it’s normally not visible to the human eye and yet essential for our brain.
