Abstract

COGITO in Space is an experiential narrative sending thoughts into outer space as radio waves. The project exists both as a mobile installation and as performative event staged inside the cabin of the Dwingeloo radio telescope in The Netherlands. For both versions of the project, a team composed by three neuroscientists prepare the subject with a lab grade electroencephalogram (EEG) device and a virtual reality (VR) headset, showing an experimental video of the Earth seen from space. The brain activity stimulated by the video is recorded and simultaneously transmitted into space in real time, using the antenna of the Dwingeloo radio telescope.
