Neuro Art: liminal reflection, introspection, and participatory art
Abstract
The emerging media art genre of Neuro-art builds on a rich history of more than 50 years: From artists such as Alvin Lucier’s Music for a Solo performer (1965) to Refik Anadol’s Lumen-Prize winning “Melting Memories”, neuro-art interconnects scientific visualisation, biosensor feedback, while enabling new insights into the workings of the human brain. This paper provides insights into the history of neuro-art, as well as contemporary practices in the field: As practice-led researchers, the artists Oliver Gingrich and Shama Rahman provide an exegesis of key readings, while analysing their own practice against the backdrop of a historical context and the critical framework of phenomenology.
