Influences of the Sympathetic

Nervous System 02

Influences of the Sympathetic Nervous System 02 is an interactive installation exploring identity and community in the digital age. A large projected face, made up of anonymous video and audio clips, invites participants to shape the artwork through an interactive controller, building unique narratives by shifting facial features and expressions.

The work reflects how online culture influences perceptions of self, using fragmented faces and voices to highlight the fluid nature of digital identity. Each participant’s choices add to a shared narrative, emphasizing community and interconnection.

The title references our responses to social interaction, illustrating how digital anonymity shapes emotional connections. By engaging viewers as co-creators, the piece completes itself only through their participation.
