NEURODOME: A dome-format film that explores the brain by Jonathan Fisher — Kickstarter

Please consider supporting this project that seeks to visualize the human brain in an immersive fulldome format: NEURODOME: A dome-format film that explores the brain by Jonathan Fisher — Kickstarter.

The NEURODOME project is a planetarium show that delves into these questions.  Combining planetarium production technology with high-resolution brain imaging techniques, we will create dome-format animations that examine what it is about the brain that drives us to journey into the unknown.  Seamlessly interspersed with space scenes, the NEURODOME planetarium show will zoom through the brain in the context of cutting edge astronomical research.  This project will present our most current portraits of neurons, networks, and regions of the brain responsible for exploratory behavior.

OUR GOAL: We have already invested years of effort as well as our own funds to develop visualization techniques for both the brain and space. In this Kickstarter campaign, we are now seeking funds to create a visualization platform (a variant of Uniview) that merges the imagery of the brain and space. We are raising $25,000 in order to generate a five-minute animated planetarium sequence, complete with voiceover and score.
