Abstract:
Panel: Interart / Intersensorium. On the Interrelation of Media and the Senses
Subjective experiences, which have not been amendable to experimental measurements in the past can now be measured in terms of brain activity and related to the intensity of the declared experiences. This influences a new chapter in the study of the brain and its activity in relation to experiences such as love, hate, desire and beauty in addition to the study of perception, which is itself a subjective experience.
