INTRO

Landscape of Perception is an immersive installation that explores the interplay between human cognition, sensory perception, and machine mediation.

In this edition, "Passage", the work is restaged as a walk-through: layers of translucent curtains hang along a corridor, and the generative landscape is projected onto and through them, so the visitor moves inside the image rather than in front of it. Participants wear non-invasive EEG headsets that capture real-time neural activity, including metrics related to attention and relaxation. These signals steer both the machine-generated visuals and the reactive sound, so subtle shifts in attention and focus reshape the space around the person wearing the headset.

THE OUTCOME

Passage was shown at Berlin New Media Week 2026, the citywide festival for digital art and electronic music that ran from 2 to 6 September across galleries, clubs and cultural spaces in Berlin. The first version of Landscape of Perception premiered in the Boilerroom of the 2025 PACE Festival in Potsdam.
