As part of the research for my dissertation, I went along to see ‘The Mind Cupola’ an “Affective Environment” it is an installation that has built in heat sensor equipment. It also has face recognition software, to allow the viewer to “passively” interact with a visualization in front of them in order to achieve a state of ‘equilibrium’. Sound is generated by the heat from the person, and fans are built into the machine to heat or cool the person to help them achieve a neural state.
This is an example of an immersive environment different to the dome, and using different modalities than i will attempt to use.
