Virtual Meditative Walk
Interactive Artist & Researcher, Transforming Pain Lab, SFU
Project Overview
This was a project with the Transforming Pain Lab at SIAT, SFU. The idea behind Virtual Meditative Walk was conceived and realized based on walking meditation and working with chronic pain population in Victoria, BC. I worked on the first prototype versions of the Project.
My Contributions
The project was conceived as a result of my interests in mindfulness and Buddhism practises of my cultural background. I worked closely with J.D. Yim in conceptualizing and creating the first prototypes of the Virtual Meditative Walk using the real-time engine 3DVIA Virtools and connecting Thought Technology's galvanic skin response (GSR) sensors and a uni-directional treadmill for locomotion.
