The current piece of work consists of an interactive experience that draws on a bank of 87 separate locations filmed in 360 video. Locations switch in response to the emotional changes of the user creating a journey that creates a strong emotional relationship to the environment

Currently further developing EEG metrics for emotions as well as working on an ARI (agent recognition index) based on a generating a simulation of brain activity during the DMT breakthrough experience. This takes the environment a step further from feeling empathic and encourages the user to feel that the environment has a conscious presence.
