Epiphony (2018)

"Epiphony" is a reflective dome in which ‘two bubbles collide’. It deals with the interpersonal space between two individuals, where mutual emotional being is measured with heart rate and electro dermal activity: the higher the arousal, the more the skin conductance increases, as well as heart rate. Sound is the foremost feedback of this biological interaction: by backcasting the internal process of the two being ‘alone together’, it exposes this unique private experience.
‘The only way to unravel the mystery of the other is by listening.’

This installation was exhibited at Into The Great Wide Open Festival and developed by Alida Glasbeek, Görkem Arıkan and Francesco Di Maggio.
