[size=14]After Thought is a portable personality testing kit, which uses flashcards, brainwave analysis and custom software to generate a video reflecting the subject's emotional landscape.

During the interview, the participant wears an EEG-monitoring headset and turns over flashcards of charged imagery, such as a house on fire, a traffic jam, and a cute puppy. I track their relaxation and stress levels, noting the images that trigger unusual responses. Afterwards, custom software processes the test results and creates a unique 5-minute video composite of associated imagery. At the end of the session, each person receives a copy of their video.

[SIZE=16]PROPOSITION. LUCK. RANDOMNESS. RISK. OPPORTUNITY.[/size]

Art in Odd Places (AiOP), New York City’s annual public art and performance festival, is pleased to announce its 2010 event to take place from October 1 to October 10, 2010, along 14th Street in Manhattan from Avenue C to the Hudson River. The festival will feature approximately 30 artists from New York and beyond, who will apply their practice to an unconventional structure—playing off the idiosyncrasies inherent to the urban plane.
