Mind Art Experience Lab (MAE Lab) is a multidisciplinary initiative from Mind Science Centre under the National University Singapore (NUS) School of Medicine. MAE Lab brings together scientists and practitioners in art and architecture to foster collaboration and research.
Exploring the impact of the arts and architecture on the human brain and behaviour, MAE Lab’s mission is to develop mental resilience and enhance the way we live. Together we created a video that aims to portray the immediate connection between our sensuous body and the surroundings.
“Discovering the Wonderland” aims to inspire a holistic exploration of everyday places and situations. It is inviting you to mindfully observe all of your thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations. This means facing also what you may find unpleasant, difficult or overwhelming.
Living a healthy and meaningful life in the city is not about trying to get somewhere else, but about being fully aware and present, curious and playful where and as you are.
Are you interested in encouraging contemporary citizens to expand their awareness to the urban environment? Just get in touch with us – we would love to collaborate with you.
