My Body Is a Lens I Can Look Through With My Mind
Directors Gordon Monahan, Bill Coleman - Canada - 15 min. - EXP Documentary
Using the cinematic language to explore the connection between logic and emotion, technology and the organic, Sound of Mind and Body presents a unique film experience. Mind-controlled software harnesses a performer's brainwaves to sculpt sound, light, kinetic actions, and musical composition while they move and dance. The film captures a unique brainwave-influenced improvisation, where neural impulses trigger chance-based algorithms, which then determine patterns and combinations of sounds, musical notes, and light pulsations.
