Brain Storm research published in Conciousness and Cognition
Recently, human behavior has been considered the product of continuous interactions between perception, cognition and action in which ‘‘affordances” (action possibilities the environment has to offer) play an important role. Converging evidence suggests that multiple action possibilities simultaneously compete for further processing, while external and internal factors (e.g., incoming sensory information, predictions) bias this competition.

Measuring daylight
I tried to compose a work using the daydreamdesigntools I found by reading from Pallasmaa, Bachelard and Ingold. (‘To dream deeply man must dream with substances, not with objects’ – Ingold). Daylight was the substance I chose to compose with. The result is a work that is fully dependant on daylight: a ‘clock’ for daydreamers. I also measured the daydreamquotient of the image. My next step is to explore the qualities of these materials (tracing paper, daylight and air) in a more architectural structure. Larger Picture

Stills or Flowers for the Soul
‘Still’ is a synonym for distillate. But it is also ‘snapshot’ or ‘still life’. And ‘memory’. For this project I made stills from the garden of my Dutch grandfather, who was a head of public parks in Assen. I only learned about his flower gardens through hearsay. I decided to use chemistry as a tool for my translations, because my Egyptian granddad was a chemistry professor. Combining the professions of my granddads (who never met) resulted in 4 liqueurs (the Stills) that could be tasted during the exhibition. Read more

Daydream Academy
What is daydreaming and can it be triggered by external stimuli? Neuroscientist and friend Martijn Wokke at the UVA Cognitive Science Center helped me to find out. The result was that I could establish the daydreamquotient of certain images, colours and shapes, that I can use in my future work to encourage daydreaming. More

Marryana Rapnever (Trouw nooit een Arabier!)
Never marry an arab! My mother told me these words as early as I could remember, and they inspired me to create an animated character and toys with a hidden message for unmarried girls in Egypt and Saudi Arabia, where I donated the toys to girls schools More
