Mind Bridges
Mind Bridges is an educational project with 1,400 children from Amsterdam who together investigate what attention is and how we shape it in the digital age.

Mind Bridges is a collaborative artwork between Jeroen Alexander Meijer and 1500 Amsterdam children for the Amsterdam Light Festival.
The projection mapping on an old bridge next to the seven bridges highlights the value of undivided attention between people. Today, we are distracted more than ever by our digital technology, causing the connections between us to crumble. We must be more conscious of what we give our attention to. That is why we asked children to come up with rituals that help them be more attentive to each other.
These symbolic choreographies are recorded with a point-cloud camera and creatively visualized by [Jeroen Alexander Meijer](https://www.instagram.com/jronalxndrmjer/) and [Nikzad Arabshahi](https://www.instagram.com/nikzadarabshahi/).
In this way, we make the normally invisible bridges of attention between us visible.
