Suzanne dikker, "mutual wave machine" / eye film institute 2013

Sound Design + Interactive Design

Matthew designed the sound for Suzanne Dikker's project, Mutual Wave Machine:

Enclosed by an intimate capsule and immersed in an audiovisual environment that responds and reflects their shared brain activity, two visitors can directly experience and manipulate their internal efforts to approach or distance themselves from each other. During the experience, greater brainwave synchronization is reflected in greater vividness and more coherent and recognizable audiovisual patterns, while lack of synchronization strays towards dark audio-visual chaos: a faint ringing in the ears and static in the retinas. More.
