The second Art & Science: Insights into Consciousness Workshop was focused on the project Measuring the Magic of Mutual Gaze, which was shown at Marina Abramovic’ retrospective exhibition The Artist is Present at the Garage Center for Contemporary Culture (Moscow, 2011). A draft of the installation/experiment was presented and discussed, and a debriefing interview of the subjective experience was developed.
