 So again hello again Good afternoon. Good evening. It's my name is Ricardo Palmiere. I'm from Brazil I broke some old stuffs that I was producing since 2011 Just to share with you. I don't I'm afraid that maybe I don't have any new solution any new technology to show you But my goal here is more to listen from you because I know here. I suppose here you have more researchers in this brainwave area and Would be glad if you participate and in fact I prefer I would like to do this in a Kind of circle should be better, but I start showing some some of my stuffs my photos and Videos and after we can open the discussion if you are affordable for you I just plug in my computer and you can start. Okay, just give me one minute You have an announcement if you want to do it now, it's So Thank you for all your here presence I Yesterday supposed to have this speech another place and we had a small lack of information and I Didn't show I have a no show in the my speech so they changed for today. So apologize for this Misunderstood so I tried to do my best today And I think today will be better to talk about all these things because at the end tonight Starting at 10 p.m. We have an installation in the main street who have the Russian truck have you heard the green Russian truck behind it to have a White tent with some plastic bags and We we have an interactive immersive installation with using this system that I show here today So all of you are invited to be there tonight To try the system and play with some dolphins. We we broke some dolphins to Play here with us So first of all, I would like to introduce my background because I'm not I haven't stood to program. I haven't stood in January Engineering I'm an architect I learned to build house. I learned to build cities. I learned to build this kind of thing but After when I finish my the university I start to work with this kind of Traditional architecture and I was very disappointed because in the university I had lots of teachers who try to Push us to think out of the box and we try to think out of the box in Brazil, especially in the building house building buildings we suffer by the by the lobby of the Builders a big builders they they have the right way to do if you do different the government doesn't allow you to build even if you spend like Like I did spend one year researching and try to approve in new materials different New stuff with the government even if the government approve it You have a problem with the builder because the builder doesn't know how to Manage that kind of material. So I was very disappointed with that and I and I changed my My point of view and start to working Inside the art field. So some people from theater and dance Start to call me to produce some sonography and they bring some some issues to me like the dancer who wants to put her foot in some place in the stage and Suddenly that lights and at the same time lights and videos change in the stage So they come with this this troubles to me and I start to research how to solve it I remember my first experience with that was in 2001 We have exactly this issue with the dancer who wants sensor on the floor and In Brazil, we didn't have this technology We found some sensors from German from Germany and this sensors costs like 300 euros at this time. So it's quite expensive for a brazilian We have this Difference of four times from our money to euros. So was quite impossible to work with this so we decided to find some solution and we use like Plastic plastic shapes with aluminum foil and cables soldering a keyboard a keyboard board and You have like pressing keys inside the stage you could change the videos using a VJ to for example So at this time I start to work inside the stage and working as VJ and Visual Jockey After a few years doing this doing trying to find this kind of solutions I Was invited to join an amazing team That is it was 2003 2004 when we had at this point in Brazil a new minister of culture was Gilberto Gil maybe we heard about his a Famous musician in Brazil and he guys when he when he arrives in the meanest minister of culture he decided to do a big change in what means culture in Brazil and He creates a special team to find To locate 304 places who was producing culture but who hasn't any kind of funds from government all of them are worked by themselves and trying to preserve the countryside culture from different different Regions of Brazil from the north from the north to east that are the most poor regions that we have in Brazil and And So I joined this team and our work was to fund in in each of these places multimedia studio that we have a special equipments for audio recording for for to record bands or whatever you want a studio video studio to editing Graphic design studio and recycling computers studio But all of this using only open-source tools so to me was a big change in my life I Used to work with Properties but at this point that we decided just work with open source and We spent like six months one year trying to migrate doing this migration from platforms to another and At the end we did a nice work like during four years we travel all Brazil Brazil have 26 states. I visit 24 of them And most of time we sleep inside this place in very far regions in very poor places and It's not about to be a tourist but try to understand the real Situation of the locals so it blow my mind again and after this Seven of these four years working together with these guys I'm starting to became a kind of activist by osmosis because I was inside this this speech and I was giving this speech for everybody and I changed my my Productions my stools to production to open source But in this time was 2007 2008 I had another issue that it was we have a Change in technology in video technology that was we came from we used to have the sd. Format And it changed to HD format and at that point or tools that we have to use We were using all the time in Linux It wasn't so good to To flow this video in a nice way like we have drop frames or have some friend beaches So I I have to change a little bit to To proper tattoos, but most of time I used proper tattoos just to play videos All the interactivity that I want to do I continues to use open source tools I Just talk about this. I think it's important to rip to Explain what we show tonight and what to show you here later and After that in 2011 I ingress in the In a course is a master master's course in Brazil colored digital design and Intelligence technologies, so it's a it's a program with masters doctor and PhDs so I ingress in the in the at the time in the in the program and Was a quite strange because the first class that I had was about synesthesia synesthesia, it's okay synesthesia and All the PEG and doctors that was inside the class never Touch in her life in the EEG equipment So I asked me what I'm doing here because I have lots of this Amazing guys with lots of diplomas and stamps and I don't I just have my architecture stamps And I could I had an idea how to build one of these device But I never tried before so those guys simulate them No, if you produce something we could use in your labs, and if you produce it we could even give you a Scholarship to keep your research amazing There was my my My desire to have a scholarship because at this point I was paying the course and it was a quite expensive course So I decided to do my first experience And my first experience was something like This project that I would like to show you that has in shock tables when you took this toy from Mattel. It's called What's the name of mindflex it's a game basically where you have a crystal head and you could control a blower That could flow a little ball and you have a kind of maze and you have to Drag the ball in the maze using your head. They also have another toy It's it's about a Star Wars you have to Jedi's and have to battle with your brains So it's quite funny toys, but it just toys so the trick was to put the The mindflex with Arduino with that I could read Basically 10 10 datas from this toy they basically eight Data from the any EEG is the alpha beta theta and gamma height and low Frequencies also he gives me a Automatically gives me has an inside the microchip has an algorithm who give me the level of attention and level of meditation so I with these I had a Kind of EEG is a toy. It's low-frequency little frequency, but Work as a prototype. So I brought I bring it to the university. So I build it but we have I think I have a Nice picture of me wearing this device. Let me show you it's a quiet weird device at the end because But they are doing and you have the USB still of course We could put some Bluetooth or something like that in there doing but at this point I didn't have enough money because I had to pay the university. So I just took what I have in my home. I found this A second hand mind flex on eBay and I could import it into Brazil So I think I paid more in taxes to have it in Brazil then from the toy the toy cost like 30 Dollars and I pay like 90 dollars from taxes. It's amazing to live in Brazil and to work with technology so With this toy I Back to the university and show to the doctors. Okay, let's play with EEG now And the guys Wow, but it doesn't know what to do with their brainwaves So, okay I back to my home and keep work with that try to figure out what I could do with that and When I was working with this I I have this Feeling look into the I was using processing. You know this. Do you know this software? It's a it's a kind of Artist ID for to our artists to program It's quite simple to produce produce images if you are the designer if in In four hours you can produce interactivity. It's quite simple too and I was work with this tool at this point and I found a library that Allow me to get this data from the Arduino and I could split it in frequencies and when I was looking to these graphs How I feeling like if I was traveling a train You know because you have this is small mountains and big mountains passing on the train window So I figured out how could I put this in a more artistical way? Because reading more about EEG. I Discovered that this is not a EEG. This is just a toy. I have low frequency. I cannot to be Very precise with this these waves, but for artistical proposes looks like a nice tool at this moment So I created at the time of my my first installation That is this one Neuroscape, so if Neuroscape I could get this kind of images So it's a bunch of graphics at first point, but if you Remove the idea of graphics and put inside an installation that you are talking about trains and windows and landscapes You can play with this situation. I don't know if you understand what I'm trying to mean But it's about to change the from the technician to the art thinking and Also, I produce an audio tool that gets this data and start to producing some Synthetical sounds I know I can show some videos about this. Okay, this is the first Yeah, I have to change here. This was in the first exhibition of the installation was in Is a festival that we had used to have in Brazil it's called a live cinema and They invite people who works with live images the creation of Real-time images is not about to VJ, but to change in real-time the great synthesis in real-time so I apply my project in this in this exhibition in this festival and people could just wear the Bill, oh, sorry. I Jump a little bit because When I decide to do it as an installation I have this problem to people put that huge device in the head and it was a kind of uncomfortable because has the And in the last key we still so it's it's not so good what hurt The front all the time. So I discover another kind of quite cheapest Device that is this from the company called Neuro sky I think you heard about this is the First I think his first or second version of the build is called the mind wave And It's quite simple is the same principle of the mind flex you have two points to connect in your head One point to connect in your ear and another is staying on the front. So this One sensor is different Another one is here and you We are like this And you can plug in The ground here. So It's quite simple. It's light Has a Nice thing that it's a toy also. So you don't have to calibrate it They had a self calibration in I think if I'm not wrong in thinking in 10 seconds It has an auto calibration. So for installations was amazing because you have lots of people passing in wearing this like Three minutes at the maximum and change to another people for an audience. So Was quite funny To the situation But my main project was with three screens. Can you see here? This is my my first sketch of the solution was something like You keep there boring and almost sleeping and the landscapes coming passing through you Like if you was inside a train Navigating so the I think you have some some image like that Now she is using the the same device that I'm using now It happens in 2012 I Start the that masters in 2011. So after one year I was with this work and the Running with this work around Brazil and also How the the doctors from the university they haven't found how to work with that brainwaves So I didn't earn in my I didn't earn my scholarship. So I abandoned the masters And I prefer to keep the research as an artist scientist In fact, we have in Brazil this problem with scientists the most important scientists in Brazil are not in Brazil more And the newer newer scientists are just leaving Brazil last week or New president he decides to cut all the scholarships from the university from the graduation and We have this problem increasing in Brazil about education So it's very important I'm talking about the situation in Brazil it's important to say that We have this lack of technology not only because the Because by the taxes from to import technologies and also because our scientists are always producing outside of Brazil But also have a lack in education like the basic form of education Kids are still learning mathematics are they are my grandfather learned mathematics Sixty seventeen years ago. So we are trying to change it in the points like Work with kids in the neighborhood out of the school But the normal school has the several rules that you cannot change and then the teachers Earning sheet salary so they doesn't care about to change anything. So we have a terrible situation Of Course for this reason we have to improvise we have a nice word in portuguese that is gambiarra I would like to write to you this word. It's something like improvisation extreme improvisation so we love to use silver tape and and wires Hot glue this kind of tools to build Houses to be you know because it doesn't have access to Nice technology now you have some Chinese people moving to Brazil they have lots of cheap stuffs like chips are cheapest Arduino chip is chips like chips like that so People are booking by it in affordable price But most of time it's twice the price you pay here in Europe for this kind of device I'm not here to cry about this, but I'm here to say that we Try is we still trying to be creative And competitive in the world not about competition, but to be on the same level But we have to assume this lack of technology. It's a huge problem. I'm living Brazil. I travel Not not travel not so much around outside of Brazil I travel too much inside Brazil and I try to Show to the children that is possible to do things like disassembling Old material and resoldering stuffs and try to understand what is happening inside this black box that we bought every day I like to show another another video that after that Well, maybe some pictures just fast pictures This is this was my mentor Indian in the Masters He is a musician also. He's trying to Play and detect what's going on in his brain. This was in it's not university. This is not party in Brazil. It's a Kind of Hacker party It's Saturday night and they just put the system then and people could come and ask you what's going on And they could explain and test it together But it happens more in part party stand in the university, you know, it's quite weird but here we are He's playing the keyboard and here have people drinking and using drugs and Trying to see what happened with her brain in the installation and they really enjoyed the experience inside the Discontext, you know, it's a quite funny like every Every time you drink a beer the colors change You know, so observe I was observing this Behavior of people drinking and it was changing all the time people smoking and changing the colors so I decided to Transform this this experience in a performance In a and I could perform it with that. This guy is a just super drunk. You know, he's wearing the eye So And this is the in the Rio de Janeiro exhibition So I decided to transform it in a performance And I have a little a little video here about this performance so in this performance I changed my my state of mind doing different things like I Had a bottle of sake the Japanese drink so during the performance I drink a lot sake Sometimes I stopped to drink and I have to cut sushi because I have to be very to be very attention to cut sushi in the right way after I put some music to change my state of mind too and In a certain point I talk with the audience because it is a different pattern to mine And I had it projected over my body This is my first session the second session might change my clothes to white So I became part of the screen it became more interesting, but I just have this documentation from that So when I drink it becomes too purple When I talk with people became too blue When I cut sushi becomes too yellow, so it's it's quite funny Representation of the state of mind, you know, so it's not so precise as a scientist research, but Do you know creates this? How can I say? People start to think about what's going on. How can I move over? How can I stood that? Okay, but we are discussing about open source tools, right and at this point I have two problems with open source tools because using this device Now they have a new one the company has a new one that works in Linux But this one that was cheaper at the time has a special Form to communicate with computer that is using his own dongle that is a proprietary dongle But it allows me to read the J song numbers In a certain way so I could I can extract the data from the dongle But it's a kind of Bluetooth, but in a different protocol, so it's close it stuff So if I want to run it in Linux It sucks. I Try to run it to using wine or something like that, but doesn't work very well So I have to change to a proprietary system so at this point I could join my two problems that is how to Map the video because my my proposal I was using this three screens So to do that I have to map do a kind of video mapping to integrate these screens And I haven't found this point to in Linux to do that So I decide to move to to make OS That I use it to do VJ So and start to use the same tools that I use to make VJ To do the installation so the flow of this installation is something like I have the The device in In the macOS x I have the driver for that. I Could read the the the data from processing That is a quite funny to do this graphic is and things like that, but I would like to produce music and I Use period data. I don't know if you know this Software period data. It's a it's a nice tool, but also I think in Europe. It's a quite old too I remember in 2000 2007 I came to I came to Spain to talk about to period data and Yeah, we are using a lot in Brazil and the developers of period data was in the in the speak in the speech And they asked what the fuck are you doing with that? We don't use it anymore But for for us, it's amazing too because it's nice. I can show you the period data how it works because It's very nice to To show two kids because you have the flow of the information. You can see in fact, it's a C++ Behind it, but it's a real-time program. So when you connect to this box those box You can have it in real-time things happen like I try to do something here a real-time thing I Create a new for a new project Where is this? Good day. I try to do here. I don't know what's going on but Like I'll try to do some basic sound. I think it's I Have to kill it first. Sorry Okay, now we are talking so When you open period data you have this blank window and you can start to create your small blocks here You do some zoom so I try to do here First of all, I do this small object is a digital analog converter so I can convert anything from computer to my speakers Okay The data that I use here. I have to amplify to hear it so I can create some multiplying waves by one and I can just Connect those blocks Okay Also, I need some sound generator So I have here an object called Oscillator OSC. So in period data you have this Tude objects that means that are audio objects And I can just put here and now I have to play this oscillator To play an oscillator you have to use Hertz So for musicians is not so nice to speak about Hertz for art. So we talk about the notes In competition have MIDI notes So I can convert frequencies to MIDI and now I can send Numbers in fact, I did wrong. I have to meet two frequencies, right and now I Could hear something. I have to turn on my DSP card. So now if I put some Number here It's a quite simple to program and you have fast results like if I do like three or four of these I can create Team timber timbre is team What's the name Now the the quality of the sound of this timbers So I can do synthesis any kind of synthesis So I have soltudes. I have different kinds of waves and I can do whatever I want This version of period data is called it's bd extended because he has lots of libraries inside it even has libraries for video and for 3d objects different kinds of things but The process of video is not so fast This is my problem with to do VJ with the open source tool that I I know best better than is So today we are Teaching kids in Brazil how to use period data to start the logical thinking You know how to why we start where you want to go and you have the flow of the information in the visual way know Just to wake up some of you. So I was talking about the flow of distillation. So distillation pass through Processing who has who never saw processing processing has this This is interface of processing. So I can program in in a simple Java way It's based on Java processing, right and my all my audio stuffs I'm processing using period data that is sharp, but it's made for music made especially for music and all my image that I generate in the processing I use another To that is colored Siphon I Don't know if you heard about it's it's a Mac OS X stuff It's it's a chain. It sends the data from the OpenGL from one software to another software So I can render a video in my desktop for example and struck this video and send it to my VGA to and with this I can stretch do whatever I want with the video But I still have a problem because I have to communicate between processing and period data to They need to have a conversation. So the language they who speak together is OSC That is a quite different from the oscillator that I showed before has a little confusion because OSC is the open sound control It's a kind of protocol to that comes to put midi in a more How can I say in a better way because midi you heard about midi Midi has just always sent three datas in midi. You have always three data Generally is the channel that you are playing the note that you are playing and Intensity that you are playing or some variations of these three numbers with open sound control. You can send a hundred if I'm not wrong is a hundred twenty eight bits of Data in a line and this data is sent using UDP not TCP. So it's very fast to process and you can send it Thousand of times per second and if you if you lose some packet, it's quite okay because you are You are more than third frames per second that you are we are used to percept by visual Visual sense So I have this flow. I have the Neural sky be reading by processing Processing send data to OSC to period data period data is playing the audio and The image generated by processing I send it by siphon to my video mapping tools At this point I was using a tool called the mad mapper that is a proprietary tool I'd so it's a proprietary tool. I will not open the website of them or you want to check it It's not a propaganda. I don't know. It's just about knowledge. I Don't like to do propaganda, but our guys from Switzerland if I'm not wrong who produced this software Sorry, it's a mad mapper Yeah, so It's super nice Software so all of this video mappings that you are seeing around you have to the Facade festival in Europe, right that people are doing video maps around the different cities most of them uses or Mad mapper to do this alignment of images and beauties Or they use another tool. There is the resolumi arena I think it's European too. Also, I'm not I'm not sure about that, but it's a quite expensive too But this is very nice because it's It's not only as a VJ software, but also a video mapping software and Also DMX Manager, so you can manage your lights of your stage using this tool So today I'm using this one because it's it's very fast to do to do this kind of concerts When people asked to do So this is my my final my final Part of the process so I sent my image to here and I can map it anyway like three screens for screens Whatever I want depends off my my computer in the card boards Okay, but after 2012 2013 I I sent I came if this installation I didn't came to the to Netherlands but this issue was invited to be part of the home festival home in 2013 and I sent all my stuffs to People from the organization and they assembled installation. I think it was in a kind of castle That's somebody built inside the festival and this relation was inside this this castle And after that I never touch again in this technologies. I was working in the different stuffs By the way, if you want to check my stuffs that I used to work you can see in my website Is this one it's VJ VJ palm dot com So you can see lots of I have some commercial work and Work like I told I talked about with kids like playing with Carrots and things like that, you know is in Maki Maki and this kind of simple devices So also working with this idea of a gambiaha Okay, and this year a Friend of mine here from from from from from Netherlands. He invited me to do a partnership she was working with the this idea of sustainability and She was very worried about the the thing about plastic bags so she realizes how she was trying to build an installation that Keeps people worried about the plastic bags the seps the the access of plastic bags that we have around the world so she invited me to be part of the team and And we did this installation that we open tonight so This is how I plan to finish my my speak is inviting you to to be tonight at the Installation and I could show you a little bit more of the balls of the system how it works But if you are interested in the neuro escape I Can talk a little bit more And also if you want to talk a little bit about your experiences and maybe Maybe I could learn something with you. This is my like I said at the beginning. This is my goal here I want to learn more than talk, but they They invite me to talk to you. So I'm just sharing my my simple experience, but I Think it's about knowledge. So it's never We never less we never lost this kind of things, right? so I have an open mic if you want to to do questions or Tell your stories you are welcome You did your announcement. I'm a very terrorist in your a PCB go a PCB go go, right? You want to talk a little bit? Take questions about your presentation first I'm so open Mike. So what do we have questions? Okay, nice Hi, yeah, hello, um, so the installation you build now is with this toy you have on the table or yeah, I'm still using this toy because In last timing on They both here one of these devices and I still have one of these in Brazil So we decide to be cheapest working the cheapest way. So you're just Recycling the technology, of course, I would like to have the new one Now I'm interested in this one But it was a quite a quite expensive the mobile version of this one So we decide to bring here the same equipment, right? And another thing you remarked about the video mapping I was thinking if you want to do it cheap I didn't do the experience yet, but with blender, which is an open source 3d animation software there are some plug-ins to map things and I Wouldn't be surprised if it would be possible to use blender for video mapping It would not be at that sense that's those commercial packages because they are just tuned to quickly set up a gig and And and and make it working, but I think it would be possible with blender So if you want to investigate cheap open source things, I think that would be a good direction I had some experience with blender like 10 years ago 80 years ago But now I still have blender in my computer But I use blender to just to model things because became my tool to model is it's quite simple to model things That's amazing, but I never Try try it, but I look for I know that Most of time I use blender because now I'm using another technology that is unit I think you heard about and unit. It's super cool technology. It's it's not open source But the scripts you can share it to see sharp and javascript and I use it a lot And also I have friend of mine. He's he's he's producing a two-colored Blended dome so it's a it's a tool to make a video mapping in domes and He's using unit to do that. So unit has this Siphon Input so you can send your data from any VJ software any any software to this Blended dome and you can put in the spherical projection And but I look for that because have the Probably you use the game engine of a blender to do that as opposed Well, you could yeah I would imagine you could use the the game engine of blender But I I think there have been in the past some people that have projected with blender on the dome also so these Possibilities are there, but it would not be as streamlined as with the commercials things, but I think You could make it like that There's a plug-in specifically that you could look at it's called blam B L A M Which can you can use to? map stuff on on objects, so I Would take a look. I think I heard about this blam Just check it out Also, I have this this comments about Blender because I Have a lot of friends from that that work with me in the open source context that I was telling you in the ministry And when you work to the Ministry of Culture that are super Python guys and Blender Blender most of time it's Python but when you when you go to this commercial tools people just Don't care doesn't care about Python. There is a super powerful and they just want to use it see sharp Come on and Java script and do this kind of things, you know It's it's just a comment you because I Passed here these ways in a few times and I saw people talk about Python and I'm very excited about Python, but You know have this this lack. So it's today in Brazil the guys who work with Python I have like three or four friends Most of the other friends are leaving outside of Brazil producing things with Python, but in Europe or in United States most of them, you know Thank you any more questions or Comments or histories feel free guys. I Would have a question how this does work actually because yesterday we have been in a talk and the guy was I think he was building these interfaces and he said it's Extremely It's it's actually not very precious the the precision is not very good So and I think this toy can't give you very good eeg Is it like that? It's yeah, this is this is the point because this is the reason because I changed to artistical Wade, you know because it's not so precise. I can put this to its to work Maybe it should be nice to you to you see it. So let just let me I suppose I have to Close processing, but let's try without closing So just plug your dongle turn on your Device and if you have the proprietary games, it's start to work But now I'm using a home made code. So Sometimes doesn't work like the commercial Stuff, but let's try I have it plug it. He has a a special socket has a Software that can read it and convert the data to JSON socket and The this code will just I have the library inside this code. There is this Zoom a bit too many things in my hands. I need I need more hands Here we have this a special library for that You know so it read the serial port and can get this data and all the other things is I Just send this data to us always see us open sound control for this reason. I have this always see library and have the network library so when I play it it's supposed to Work And and when it works it became blue But still not blue. I think I have to close the software and open again. Okay. I just open again in just a minute. Oh And now so have this thing about processing because processing when I start to work with processing in 2002-2003 we had the 1.0 version and After a few months after a few two years they have one dot five after Five years the version two and I'll have the version three that is amazing with open GL and you can use this device as Kinect to or can use it multiple skin at to do installations It's amazing too, but my library the library is from this guy. This guy doesn't work in the new process anymore, so Let me open the Here okay So this is the sketch. Let's start again to become blue Come on Doesn't want to work Some message there just and that's quite a just one question Is it does it work the same like this pure data you showed that you are? stimulating with an oscillator and changing the colors or Yeah, but now I'm doing in Code format not in that blocks like I saw before the idea is a little bit different But yeah here. I'm doing the code this this is not the Neuro is let me open the Neuro escape Because this one supposed to just to this is what I am using this installation here It's just read the data and send it to OSC, right? But I opened the The Neuro escape one Let me try this Come on be blue Fuck with me. Yeah, man Properties stuffs shit. Oh I let's do I try I try to repair You will show it in the evening anyway, or I suppose to show But if I could have the sometimes because I was using it before the This beat the speak and I closed just close the computer and open again. Sometimes I have to do a I Repairing of the device so I have to forget this device and Pair it again. So this is one of the process that you have to do So he just tried to find The dungle and sometimes doesn't find the dungle find out. It's have some issue here with serial port problem No, the PD doesn't use anything I could close it, but He's not using the Serial port or whatever Maybe I have to restart the computer because I'm my co s if I was in Linux I could just close the shut the door and you know this kind of thing and Now found the device, okay Okay devices here and it's buried and Here is the code of NeuroScape Let me check if the serial port is the same Check it, check it, check it Let's try it's blue. I was not lying look He's still not working because I I didn't plug in my ear. So I need the ground to start the process. I Suppose I'm not sure but I suppose that this device works on the thing like a Galvanic system like it's it's saying some small voltage to to your head with lower amperage and depends of how the variation of the voltage back to the ground he tried to To split in the waves. I suppose it works like this. I research. I read something like but I'm not sure Wow You have some things there No, I'm very I'm very Excited now I'm a little nervous because we have more yellow if I drink if I drink It's not a good idea because I have installation to finish but if I drink now it becomes purple for sure but if I keep coming if I keep talking few it became a little bit blue a little bit Purple I'm not seeing the colors now, but probably something like that or not blue purple Less yellow or too much yellow Not so much yellow. Yeah, I'm I'm with a weak mind. I think it's just a small of the screen But just to to to show the thing about siphon if you are interested we have this application for example, it's a siphon Siphon er Phoner It's a phoner. It's super cool because you can choose different Applications open in your in your computer and like I can take the brain and It becomes to send this data to OSC now to to siphon. Sorry and I can get this image like I can open a siphon recorder. It's another application Where is siphon recorder? Siphon recorder, okay, this is siphon recorder Like the name say it's just a siphon recorder. It just receiving the data from OpenGL From the video card and render it in real time like you see it's it's real time It's changing here. It's changing here. It's changing here Because all of this image are being processed by the OpenGL and in the GPU So it's super nice process to to work And you can record it to became a video file When you record he it just minimized to avoid the process the sex access of processing and when I stop he asked me He don't ask me anything. He just record the video on the I think in the desktop. Let me open this Video, it's a quite confusing because have the same Interface same same windows in France interface. I Close it. I can open the sound out also from PD. So Just a moment here I have my brainwave Receiver Yeah, it's a super cool So I can just open the the tap This is the sound of my brain a little drop it I don't know why it's dropping I think I have too much things open And here is the video that siphon recorder just record It's nice question because this the device he used to have the It has this the blinking sensor. So and I don't know why I suppose is because I Updated my my operational system, but the blink blink systems doesn't work anymore You know don't work anymore, but you can get this data when you blink it. He just say blink it blink I did a Tisco residence in in in France Wasn't time that you have the circles elections in Sarkozy once the election and The people from this I was in Marseille and the people from I said it was very against the Sarkozy so the installation we did was Something like I have a projection of the the sea a picture of city of Marseille and When people blink it became the face of Sarkozy when you open your eyes Sarkozy keeps like One millisecond and back again to the to the city and people keeps with the the rest the result Residual image so they could be Sarkozy over Marcel but doesn't understand where Sarkozy came, you know just using this blink System it's it's very cool. This this blinking system, but I don't know why it doesn't work anymore I'm not sure if it's concerning to brainwave in this the sensor. I think it's more concerning to the electrical impulse that you have because you have a musco Action it needs to change the variation to it's a fast variation Do you know I think I think I'm not sure what I'm talking to you, but we could discuss with the The the manufacturers of this device You told me That you have brainwaves and the muscles as well you can measure it so maybe it measures the muscles, okay, gosh He told me I just Time out so I thank you very much for for this meeting a few and And feel free to let's continue this conversation and the bar on this elation You
