Hearts and Minds: The Interrogations Project
Hearts and Minds: The Interrogations Project was developed at the Electronic Visualization Lab (EVL) at the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC) for the CAVE2™, the next-generation large-scale virtual-reality 320-degree panoramic environment which provides users with the ability to see 3D stereoscopic content in a near seamless flat LCD technology at 37 Megapixels in 3D resolution matching human visual acuity. The CAVE immerses people into worlds too large, too small, too dangerous, too remote, or too complex to be viewed otherwise. This project makes use of the CAVE environment for a multisensory artwork that addresses a complex contemporary problem: as American soldiers are returning from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, it is becoming increasingly clear that some of them participated in interrogation practices and acts of abusive violence with detainees for which they were not properly trained or psychologically prepared. This has in turn left many soldiers dealing with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder on their return home, and left many unresolved questions about the moral calculus of using torture as an interrogation strategy in military operations.

Eldorado, Iraq 2017 (Iraqi soundscape 2012-2013)
After fifteen years (2003-2016) of documentary field research in the Middle-East as a visual and radio producer and in the continuum of these projects, I propose here a new conceptual crossdisciplinary intuitional analysis tool. Eldorado, Iraq 2017 (Iraqi designed soundscape 2012-2013) is a practice-based, experiential and anthropological cognition system based on three-dimensional virtual reality that proposes cultural immersive sound experience through 3D environment across a country: Iraq.
