The fMRI Scans As Portraiture

Are we our brains at work? Are we how we think? Are we how we see and hear? If so, isn't the sonification of brain activity that originates in an act of spectatorship one way of portraying the self? In that case, might Music of the Hemispheres be understood as a scientific-artistic portrait of Chavez as seen through her brain at work?

The fMRI scans below are portraits of Chavez's, Antoniadis's, and Da Prato's brains at work as they responded to the stimulus film. The first set is Chavez, the second is Antoniadis, and the third is Da Prato.





These are portraits of spectators at work.
