  • MIT Museum Announces New Exhibition of Holograms and the 9Th International Symposium on Display Holography
    Press Advisory Contact Josie Patterson 617-253-4422, [email protected] Press Images - PDF MIT Museum Announces New Exhibition of Holograms and the 9th International Symposium on Display Holography CAMBRIDGE, MA - The MIT Museum announces the opening on June 27, 2012 of The Jeweled Net: Views of Contemporary Holography, an exhibition created in conjunction with the 9th International Symposium on Display Holography, co-sponsored by the MIT Museum and the MIT Media Lab. Over 20 holograms created by international artists, as well as several from the MIT Museum collections, will be on display, and will remain open to the public through September 28, 2013. The exhibition presents a rare opportunity to view selected works from the world-wide community of practicing display holographers. The MIT Museum holds the world’s largest and most comprehensive collection of holograms and regularly invites artists to showcase new work at the Museum. "This new exhibition is an example of our expanded commitment to support public engagement with practicing artists through exhibitions and programs," says Seth Riskin, who will give talks and tours throughout the coming year in his role as the MIT Museum’s Manager of Emerging Technologies and Holography/Spatial Imaging Initiatives. The Jeweled Net: Views of Contemporary Holography surveys state-of-the-art display holography, and showcases the artistic and technical merit of individual works of art. Selected by a panel of experts, the holograms on display represent artists from Germany, Italy, the UK, Canada, Australia, Japan, and the US. Holography has given birth to a new field of science during the past six decades, and as well, to a group of 'pioneers' who have found a new media upon which human vision in three dimensions is transferred.

As a result, a large number of studies have been conducted with the goals of eliciting specific affective states, measuring sensor data associated with those states, and building algorithms to predict the affective state of the user based on that sensor data. These studies have usually focused on recognizing relatively unambiguous emotions, such as anger, sadness, or happiness. These studies are also typically conducted with the subject’s awareness that the sensors are recording data related to affect.
