MindSpaces
The platform combines EEG and physiological sensing — heart rate, galvanic skin response — with presence and environmental data to modify AR/VR representations of spaces as people experience them. The underlying question is whether emotional and behavioral responses can meaningfully inform architectural design, and how that feedback loop gets built.
As part of the research team at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, the work covered proposal formulation, space documentation and 3D reconstruction, architectural design proposals, and platform specification and evaluation. Also developed urban design proposals for Barcelona and worked directly with technical partners on platform deployment.
The project was presented at Ars Electronica 2020. Consortium partners included Zaha Hadid Architects, CERTH, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, and McNeel Europe among others.
