Award-winning photojournalist, Karim Ben Khelifa, is widely known for his coverage of the Middle East conflicts, especially the Iraq and Afghan wars, where he covered the insurgent sides. While a Fellow at the Open Documentary Lab at MIT, Ben Khelifa designed and prototyped his latest project The Enemy. This immersive installation uses VR to bring the audience into conversations between enemies within longstanding global conflicts. During his residency, he collaborated with Fox Harrell of the Imagination, Computation and Expression (ICE) Laboratory, to integrate concepts from cognitive science and Artificial Intelligence-based interaction models into the project to engender empathy.

chartreuxmalheureux: My dream  #neurosciencerocks

vishnu93: @chartreuxmalheureux Yeah, it's really cool (although, my major is rocket science)

chartreuxmalheureux: @vishnu93 which is why I followed you! 😝 A few years ago I went to NASA's JPL in CA on a field trip, my professor was a team member of the Cassini mission and our tour was hosted by the director. Best lecture I've ever experienced! My heart still belongs to the brain, but I wouldn't mind a minor in aerospace :) I failed that class though, haha. (It was planetary geology)

vishnu93: @chartreuxmalheureux wow nice! aerospace is awesome, but not easy 😀

slyisfly: Props to you all the more! It really isn't.

vishnu93: @slyisfly thank you!!.. just saw lol

slyisfly: Haha! Better late than never! I like stumbling upon those stray comments

vishnu93: Haha yeah @slyisfly
