Exhibition | Shenzhen Design Week | Brain Visions

Shenzhen Design Week (SZDW), founded in 2017, is an international design festival hosted by the Shenzhen Municipal Government and organized by Shenzhen International Culture Exchange Association, with Shenzhen Culture, Creativity & Design Association (SCCDA) serving as Secretariat.

The Brain Visions project from Future Spaces Vision Lab participated in the 2024 Shenzhen Design Week, which was held from April 27 to May 6, 2024. This year's Design Week was themed "Design Makes Life Better."

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.
