The basis of the artistic research project "Breathing Data" is a self-experiment. The subject of the study is the body and mind of the researcher. The starting point is the assumption that a measurable improvement of body-related data such as heart rate, HRV and breathing rate occurs through the regular and conscious application of breathing techniques. The research process is guided by the questions of whether and how daily collection of body data changes one's behavior, whether and how daily practice is reflected in the data, and whether data-based practice fundamentally has more positive or negative effects. | “Breathing Data” is based on a self-experiment. The subject of the study is the body –and the mind– of the artist researcher. Over the course of the three-month research project, the test subject performs daily breathing exercises and collects body data using various sensor technologies. Starting point is the assumption that a measurable improvement of body-related data such as heart rate, HRV, breathing rate and quality of sleep occurs through the regular and conscious application of the exercises. The research process is guided by the questions of whether and how daily collection of body data changes one's behavior, whether and how daily practice is reflected in the data, and whether data-based practice fundamentally has more positive or negative effects. |

The project involves the specific learning of breathing techniques (pranayama), the scheduled application of these techniques, and the collection and comparison of the data obtained using multiple sensors. Throughout the project, the focus will be on the interaction between the objective data collection and the subjective state of mind identified through introsepction. A "dialogue with data" becomes the basis of a narrative in which objective measurements dialogue with subjective descriptions, vibrating the relationship between perception and measurement, between consciousness and body, and thus between mind and matter. | The project involves the specific learning of breathing techniques (pranayama), the scheduled application of these techniques, and the collection and comparison of the data obtained using multiple sensors.

A “dialogue with the data” becomes the basis of a narrative in which objective measurements enter into a dialogue with the notation of subjective experiences, thus vibrating the relationship between perception and measurement, between consciousness and body, between mind and matter. |

* What specific data will be collected: Blood pressure, heart rate variability, oxygen saturation, etc. Measurement of respiratory volume and respiratory rate, sleep pattern? | * What specific data will be collected: Blood pressure, heart rate variability, oxygen saturation, etc. Measurement of respiratory volume and respiratory rate, sleep pattern? |

The collection of data is to take place with professional support. Dr. Ulrich Ott, Bender Institute of Neuroimaging, Justus Liebig University Giessen, has written several books on the subject of breathing and is himself a neuroscientist and yoga teacher. | The collection and interpretation of data is to take place with the professional support of Dr. Ulrich Ott, Bender Institute of Neuroimaging, Justus Liebig University Gießen, who has written several books on the subject of breathing and is himself a neuroscientist and yoga teacher. |
