FOREST OF SOUND


Sound just got shape. lab 212 made something intangible like sound visible with MOC. MOC is an interactive installation that was displayed in the french institute of Meknes (Morocco) for the international festival of short animated films. If you whistle the tree starts to grow and by the sound of a voice random animals appear in the forest. Nice.

CORTIAL HOMONCULUS

Cortial Homonculus is datavisualization of the brain. It maps the brain’s area’s that are responsible for the movement of your body. By linking the amount of space it takes in your brain to the size of theĀ  bodyparts, Wilder Penfield created an image of his brain. It resulted in a disfigured body that represents his brain. Neurologist Wilder Penfield shared his work in 1951, and is used to treat Epilepsy.
