Science presupposes the production of expertise in the most diverse areas of knowledge that often arise in a quantitative format. Examples of this are the transmission frequency of nerve impulses in the brain or the effectiveness of a particular drug in the treatment of a disease. However, to understand a phenomenon under study, it is important that the data collected are transformed into visual elements easily perceptible by the scientific community. Visual representation of science often generates superb graphics, worthy of contemplation.
This project aims to join the efforts of two research groups from different (but complementary) fields and demonstrate the process of transforming scientific data into visual elements. We want to create an exhibition where you can view images representative of human cognition. We will provide the community with the opportunity to see with their own eyes the functioning of the human brain captured by scientific techniques. The end result will be a set of aesthetically interesting images designed from scientific data collected.
