Transmission – Sonifying, Visualising and Analysing Neural Activity through Telepresence

Transmission is a telematic performance which allows for real time sonification and visualisation of brain waves and looks at the effect of interaction on the human consciousness. Users are equipped with an Emotiv EEG which enables them to perceive sonification and visualisation of their brain's processing in real time. This visualisation is modified through another user's movement in a remote location – the user's consciousness becomes a new musical and visual interface played by a remote person. Transmission is both a research project on telepresence and a participatory audience tool.
