Abstract:
In this research, Visum, an immersive audio/visual application, which uses visual perception through an interface to create sound and visual objects is presented. Visual evoked potentials (VEP) are changes in brainwave electrical activity that are created when a visual stimulus is presented to an observer. Here, VEPs are generated through observing optical illusions. These VEPs are brought into an environment as three-dimensional sound and visual objects. The VEP objects can be played as an instrument via a user-controlled interface such as mixing and parameter control creating an evolving, dynamic, sounds and visuals. Visum is created for artistic and educational purposes.
