  1. A Proposal By Christopher Danelon Jonathan Pavan Phillippe Roy Natalie Schabowicz

  2. HAVE YOU EVER WANTED TO BE A…

  3. GOD?

  4. WHAT WOULD YOU DO WITH THAT POWER?

  5. In the mind of the creator • A world which let’s you make all the decisions • Installation will be viewed in a gallery • Single person use • Electroencephalography (EEG) and Tactile technology will allow users to take control of a virtual world

  6. TECHNOLOGY • Electroencephalography (EEG) • Study of brainwaves where electrical activity is mapped on the scalp • Brainwaves are recorded to find pattern • Ex. Alpha -> Relax • Ex. Beta -> Stress • EEG has been used in such projects as • Gaming • Research into telepathy

  7. EEG in “in the mind of the creator” • User’s naivety aids the experience • Sensor’s attached to the user’s head will record stress levels, categorizing them into 2 states; • Low Stress Level-> Pleased • High Stress Level -> Unpleased • These 2 states affect the events on the virtual world • Pleased -> The world will receive miracles, aiding society • Unpleased-> The world will receive tragedies, troubling society • Ex. Natural disasters • Interactivity occurs between the user (God) and the people

  8. Neurosky’s visualizer 2.0

  9. Tactile Technology in “in the mind of the creator” • Use of physical interaction directly to the medium • Touch technology brings realism • Gives user affordance • Attachment • People can intervene with the EEG technology to better or worsen the environment.

  10. TED 2010 orb

  11. The world & Events • “The World” is set on an tropical island consisting of; • A volcano • Farm (crops) • Forest • Each part is tangible to benefit or cripple the environment • “God” overlooks the world at a bird’s eye view

  12. Placement • Interaccess Gallery • http://www.interaccess.org/ • A space where the artist’s purpose not to sell, but to share • Gallery specializations • Interactivity • Networks • Virtual Worlds • In The Mind Of The Creator fits all of those qualities • Hands-on-workshop

  13. Conclusion “In The Mind Of God” is an installation that visualizes the affect of power and emotion. Through observation, we are able to distinguish a common path a “God” will take. With so much power at someone’s disposal, we are able to see how vicious or benevolent the nature of people can be.
