Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMarte Lesur is an interdisciplinary cognitive scientist and postdoctoral researcher with over a decade of experience blending behavioral science, philosophy, arts, and immersive technology to probe the boundaries of embodiment. She co-founded BeAnotherLab and helped create the Machine to Be Another, a multisensory platform that experimentally generates the illusion of inhabiting another person—an approach she leverages in both lab experiments and participatory art projects. Academically trained in cognitive neuropsychology, cognitive systems, philosophy, and electronic music production, she teaches and designs experiences that fuse verbal and nonverbal dialogue through perceptual manipulation and interactive media. Based in Zurich, she moves fluidly between rigorous experimental methods and grassroots facilitation, often translating complex theory into accessible, sensorily rich interventions.
