Artist Statement:


    “Talking with Neurons” is an interactive installation that enables people to remotely connect with live neural tissues that mimic our nervous system. Neurons are the essential units of the brain and nervous system, responsible for transmitting information throughout the body. “Talking with Neurons” invites audiences to conduct a reciprocal conversation through sending voice inputs and receiving audiovisual representations of neuronal activity by in vitro neurons that respond to their vocal cues. By exploring a new method of human-neuron interaction, this installation enables us to imagine a future where we integrate living neurons into the technology we use every day.
