Adam Horowitz
Adam is a Master's student in the MIT Media Lab's Fluid Interfaces Group. His work aims to augment human awareness, translating advances in neuroscience into design of interventions and experiences. He believes technology can show us parts of ourselves that remain otherwise invisible, opening doors to introspection, wellness and wonder. Adam has a background as a neuroscience researcher at MIT's McGovern Institute for Brain Research studying Mindfulness Meditation and Mind-Wandering with Prof. John Gabrieli, as a Research Affiliate at Harvard metaLAB, and as an Artist-Scientist at the Marina Abramovic Institute. His work has been shown at Cannes Film Festival, Google, IDEO, SXSW, VR Sci Fest, Red Bull Station and the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. Adam helps lead two communities in Boston: MIT Hacking Arts and Consciousness Hacking. Current projects include Virtual Reality adventures inside the human body, and dream control and capture in the liminal space between wakefulness and sleep
