Abstract(s)
This study explores the sensory impact of a virtual journey thr ough an immersive, interactive envir onment inspir ed by the artistic work of Domingos Mateus. It addr esses how sensory experiences in virtual spaces, using dynamic visual and auditory stimuli, can enhance emotional engagement and spatial awareness. This study aims to investigate the ef fectiveness of combining dynamic painting and emotionally resonant music within an interactive, digital envir onment, aiming to evoke a deeper connection between viewers and artistic content. A multi-sensory museum was implemented, blending interactive visual components (dynamic painting) with a custom musical scor e designed to elicit emotional responses. Participants navigated the virtual envir onment using VR equipment, cr eating a fully immersive experience. Sensory responses wer e monitored using real-time biofeedback to gauge emotional engagement and pr esence. Findings suggest combining interactive visual art and music significantly enhances users' emotional engagement and immersive experience. Participants reported heightened spatial pr esence, with biofeedback data indicating incr eased emotional ar ousal during key moments. This sensory appr oach is potentially used in therapeutic and educational settings, wher e emotional and sensory stimulation ar e beneficial. The study underscores the power of immersive envir onments in enhancing the user’ s connection to artistic expr essions and fostering memorable experiences.
