Neural Constellation
Role(s): Design, Development, Fabrication
The mind in an inscrutable thing. Science can tell us exactly how a neuron operates but it cannot even start to explain why we love hate hope or dream. Neural Constellation is a pulse based neural network created using circuit boards and microcontrollers, This system is modeled after neurons in the human brain. Each of the independent neurons communicate with flashes of light forming an interconnected nural tissue. unlike most computing systems, this is not one kept constantly busy with endless calculations. This is a mechanical brain at rest, blinking away in peaceful slumber: dreaming.
