Using lights and colors to influence emotions: The Luminal Lab

LUMINAL LAB is an artistic, immersive installation designed by light artist and theater designer Caroline Mathieu - Kunstenplatform Brussels (RITCS & VUB).
By combining brain and body sensors with an artistic and performative setting, our collaboration aims at taking the public to a scientific journey that will reveal how lights and colors influence human perception and emotions.
In this project, Sapience wants to offer new ways to understand and change human perception, emotions and feelings, just by using lights and colors.

The LUMINAL LAB consists of an immersive light installation and a neuroscientific set-up that records the brain and body signals of the spectators in real time.
In 2021 a first edition of the project took place in Theater aan Zee in Ostend.
