ROB3115 is an interactive graphic novel that is influenced by the reader’s brainwaves. The experience is driven by the reader’s ability to cognitively engage with the story. ROB3115′s narrative and its fundamental interactive mechanic – the reader’s ability to focus – are tightly intertwined by virtue of a philosophical supposition linking consciousness with attention. ROB3115 […]
Read MoreI recently founded the Brain Interface Lab with some colleagues from Parsons MFA Design & Technology and Columbia University. The lab is dedicated to supporting the open-source software and hardware development of brain-computer interfaces. Check out our website and all of the awesome stuff that was created during our first big event titled Hack-A-Brain:
Read MoreProject Summary This project relates to the brain-computer interface work I’ve been doing for my thesis. As I will soon be creating generative animations that responds to brain activity, which are part of a digital graphic novel, I wanted to do a prototype of a visually complex animation that was dependent on a person’s brain […]
Read MoreProject Summary I spent the past 6 weeks working with the amazing and progressive artist Mary Mattingly on her project titled Wetlands. Most of her work explores the complex relationship between people and the Earth. Wetlands, currently in the design phase, is a self-sustained living environment that floats in the rivers outside of Philadelphia. The structure […]
Read MorePlease take 10 seconds to vote for my New Challenge application: Despite being rather silent on this blog recently, I’ve actually been quite busy. My ongoing thesis at Parsons MFA Design & Technology is an exploration of practical applications of wearable brain-computer interfaces. More on that to come. Recently, some fellow designers, engineers, researchers, and […]
Read MoreI collaborated with two other artists, Tharit Firm Tothong and Giselle Wynn, on the creation of this illustrated short story for a class project. The piece pays tribute to ABC No Rio, an art gallery and concert space in the Lower East Side that has been in operation since the early 80s and was very […]

Read MoreI’m not sure why I haven’t shared the below link yet. It’s skipped my mind for long enough. The site is centered around one of my favorite Parsons D+T courses to date, Post-Planetary Design (yes, I stole the name for one of my blog’s categories). The course, taught by the great thinker Ed Keller, is a […]
Read More//–The Code Is On Github!–// [vimeo http://www.vimeo.com/41776885 w=500&h=281] ABSTRACT This post details the research and development of a mobile application which receives and annotates neurofeedback data from a commercial electroencephalography (EEG) device with a single dry electrode. The system is designed to convert any Android mobile phone into a portable storage device that passively records […]
Read MoreHave you ever wondered why you feel the way that you do? Have you ever been interested in seeing exactly how your daily routine affects your moods and emotions? Are you interested in discovering how to “perfect” your routine? If so, keep on reading. My good friend, Wojo, and I are undertaking a cutting-edge research study to […]
