We are exploring the design and implementation of artificial expressions, kinetic audio-visual representations of real-time physiological data that reflect emotional and cognitive state. In this work, we demonstrate a prototype, the Enactive Mandala, which maps real-time EEG signals to modulate ambient music and animated visual music. Transparent real-time audio-visual feedback of brainwave qualities supports intuitive insight into the connection between thoughts and physiological states.
