Empathie Project

Stage Design / 3D Animation, June 2023

This project is a collaboration between Kepler University Hospital (@kepleruniklinikum), the Anton Bruckner Private University - Institute of Dance Arts (@ida_bruckneruni), and Kunstuniversität Linz (@kunstunilinz). The performance took place at Deep Space 8K - Ars Electronica Center (@arselectronica).

This multimedia performance is the result of a collaborative project that brings together scientific research on empathy and artistic expression. Dr. Raimund Kleiser, a medical physicist at the Neuromedcampus of the Kepler University Hospital, has provided valuable insights from the field of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), which have served as a scientific foundation for this project. The performance art has been brought to life through the performances of students from ABPU, and the visual components have been crafted by Ozan Tezvaran and Behiye Erdemir. It was a show interdisciplinary show that resonated through the convergence of images, dance, and language.
