Digital Synesthesia

The Digital Synesthesia project by Ruth SCHNELL, Katharina GSÖLLPOINTNER and Romana SCHULER expands the range of scientific synesthesia research by introducing the possibilities of digital technologies as artistic research media. While science hopes to find answers to unresolved questions in memory and perceptual research by means of specially induced stimuli that the sense organs and human brain process to impressions, artists have contributed to an artistic evolution informed by digital art in the field of experimental perceptual art that in addition to its potential in the area of knowledge and aesthetics also sheds light on the accelerated pace of technological evolution.
