 ation of immersive and interactive media\, the Immersive Lab serves as a p

 Lab practical information\nMore information about the Immersive Lab\n\nAbo
 ut Multiple Bodies\, Super Egos & Virtual Selves\nA swipe of the arm. A fa
 int touch. Who was that? Is that? By enabling visitors to experience the u
 nusual sensations provoked by bodily illusions\, this artistic work explor
 es the delicate boundary between our seemingly stable percept of an embodi
 ed self\, and a self that is disrupted by technology. The installation is 
 equally inspired by clinical observations of disembodiment\, presence hall
 ucinations\, and other altered states of consciousness – and experimenta
 l neuroscientific investigations using virtual reality and robotics bringi
 ng to surface the fundamental brain mechanisms underlying bodily self-cons
 ciousness.\n\nInstallation made in collaboration with the Laboratory of Co
 gnitive Neuroscience of Prof. Olaf Blanke at EPFL and with the support of 
 the Swiss National Science Foundation.\n\nThe challenges of the new techno
 logies\nOn 27 February\, members of the project team and experts from medi
 a art\, cognitive science\, and museology will gather together and debate 
 with the audience about the benefits and challenges of employing digital m
 edia technologies in art\, research and dissemination.\nMore information\n
