Web-Mindscape and REFLEXION – In Sync/Out of Sync –: Biofeedback and Physical Computing in Inter-active New Media Art
Authors: Robles-Angel C., Gernemann-Paulsen A., Seifert U.
Abstract
The article draws attention to physical computing as a method for designing interactive biofeedback systems in New Media Art. Web-Mindscape and REFLEXION – In Sync/Out of Sync –, two biofeedback installations by artist Claudia Robles-Angel serve as examples. We briefly describe the artist’s intentions and give a detailed report of the technical realization of both installations in the context of physical computing. From a scientific perspective of physical computing and interactive biofeedback installations, we touch upon combining art and research in the form of art-as-science.

ENGLISH:
‘…. Claudia Robles Angel’s performance, for example, used wires that connected her brain to a system of projected images and sounds. What the audience received was a combination of pre-chosen images as well as the way that Angel’s brain was processing and reacting to them in real time. The other performances had similar arrangements, but Angel’s was the most extreme: watching her, the body became a wired machine, producing cold sounds and abrupt visuals very unlike what we associate with the brain, or with human feelings… ”

DEUTSCH:
”Dunkelheit. Ein in tiefes Schwarz getauchter Raum, der buchstäblich einer Blackbox gleicht. Nur schwer lassen sich die Umrisse einer Gestalt erkennen. Unvermittelt blitzen feine leuchtende Fäden auf – weiße und violette Lichtstränge, sternförmig angeordnet, intermittierend, kreisend, von einem surrenden Klangstrom begleitet. Welchen Ursprung aber haben Bild und Ton? Ausgangspunkt der interaktiven Performance MINDSCAPE (2016) ist nichts weniger als die menschliche Schaltzentrale: das Gehirn. Denn mit dem audiovisuellen Werk für Gehirnwellen, Licht und Surround-Sound macht die kolumbianische Medienkünstlerin Claudia Robles-Angel dessen elektrische Aktivität sicht- und hörbar. Mehr noch: Jede Aufführung beruht auf Echtzeit-Empfindungen, um daraus singuläre optische und akustische Projektionen einer im Titel angedeuteten ,Geistesschaft‘ zu generieren…”

Article of my authorship “The Human Body as an Audiovisual Instrument” in a whole chapter of this superb book: Sound & Image: Aesthetics and Practices (ed.) A Knight-Hill (2020) Routledge.
Abstract
Focusing on two interactive works by the author: Skin (2012/2018) and Mindscape (2016/2018), this chapter describes how the human body is used as an instrument to create interactive audiovisual environments. Driven by the power of the organic body and its internal imperceptible fluctuations this research puts forward the idea that the human body has so far not been perceived in its totality. Based on biofeedback methods and by measuring the body’s physiological parameters via new technologies, these performances/installations propose the usage of the human body as an ‘audiovisual instrument’ that triggers sound and visual elements via the measurement of two biomedical-signals, Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) and Electroencephalography (EEG). Instead of using interfaces for these signals as an extension of the body, these works introduce them as a bridge, a means to help the perception of the human body in a different manner. Physiological activities directly connected to the nervous system are measured and stored in a computer, which thereafter introduces algorithms to project these usually invisible and inaudible internal fluctuations inside the human body to an immersive environment, a space where inner and subtle human manifestations emerge in audiovisual form.
