Co-curated The Harvard Art Museum’s first ever exhibit on “Neuroaesthetics” with Harvard Professor Dr. Nancy Etcoff. In the Spring of 2018, Dr. Etcoff and I worked on an independent study course called Affect vs. Algorithm: Neuroaesthetics, Emotion, & Intuition through Harvard’s Mind Brain and Behavior Department. Through this course, I produced my final project: Affective Art Algorithm. Aside from that project, Dr. Etcoff and I curated this exhibit with Laura Muir of the Harvard Art Museums in order to provide tangible objects for students in the next iteration of Neuroasthetics to use in their coursework.
This exhibition in the Teaching Gallery involved the first instance of student curation at the museum.
Date: August 2018
Collaborators: Dr. Nancy Etcoff
