On this episode of The KC Arts Beat Report, Patrick Neas talks with KC VITAs' Artistic Director Jackson Thomas, neuroscientist and musician Dr. Rebecca Lepping, and visual artist Evan Tedlock about their remarkable collaboration bringing together choral music, neuroscience, immersive visual art, and real‑time physiological data. Inside the 360‑degree dome of the planetarium, audiences will experience choral music in an entirely new way—surrounded by custom visuals, guided by scientific insight, and connected through the shared rhythms of the human body.
With heart‑rate‑responsive imagery, a carefully crafted color script, and music from some of today’s most compelling composers, In One Mind represents one of KC VITAs’ most ambitious and innovative projects to date.
