The electroencephalograph (EEG) is a tool used to monitor brainwaves in a subject. There are a few consumer models out there. However, Aaron wanted to develop an open source platform that is more accessible to artists and makers. The EEG is based around a self made Arduino on a custom designed board.
Still in it’s early stages of version 1, the machine reads 2 channels through 4 electrodes. Future versions will be more expandable and faster. However, accessibility will always be a requirement.
A central concept of research an design based art is that the technology created be thought of as a platform for a medium of art rather than having a single purpose. The EEG machine has many directions it can be taken. For the first exploration of the technology the brainwaves are recorded during various acts like making a painting. Once they are recorded they are transformed into a 3 dimensional object in modeling software. The rules are based off of amplitude, frequency and time, which interact to create the form. At this point the work is still a 3D digital object. However, experiments are underway with open source 3D printers to make a physical object.
This work won Aaron Bocanegra the Artist of the Month for March 2011 from the George Greenstein Institute.
