The Cognichrome (www.Cognichrome.com), being developed by Gene Ekster with a degree in Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science from U.C. Berkeley, is a robotic art installation that utilizes a user’s brainwaves and thoughts to create an actual painting on canvas. The Cognichrome uses an electroencephalogram (EEG) worn by the user which detects brainwaves which are then interpreted with machine learning algorithms and communicated to a robotic painter. The Cognichrome interprets actual emotions in real time as the user interacts with the installation. The user’s emotions are stimulated through various sensory interactions with the machine. These emotions create the painting which the user can then take home with them.
