INTERACTIVE INSTALLATION

Neural Harmony

About

Behavior Description

Neural Harmony interactive installation explores the concept of Neural Syntax proposed by professor György Buzsáki. Neural Syntax suggests that the brain organizes information and processes sequences through rhythmic brain waves, akin to a language-like syntax that structures neural communication and cognitive functions.  

Using the hierarchical relationship of letters, words, and sentences as a metaphor, Neural Harmony illustrates the nested hierarchical Relationship between different brainwaves. When the user turn the knob: letters rearrange within specific words, like the faster neural oscillations nested within slower rhythms. Sentences are like the slowest neural oscillations, controlling and organizing all the faster ones.


Collaboration with NYU Neuroscience Institute Buzsaki Lab. Meeting Documentation
Theory based on the Neural Syntax of György Buzsáki
The installation is collected by the New York Academy of Sciences.
