Art-Science Residency
Shifting perspectives through art and neuroscience

Advanced Diagnostics Optimization Protocol
Why settle for being “high-functioning” when you can turn your mental friction into a personal brand? Neuro-Maxxing™ workshop redefines human efficiency by treating cognitive divergence as a high-value, elite asset.
Artist
Marina is an independent dance/theatre maker and tech dramaturg. She has been working with AI on stage, being a mediator between AI engineering logic and theatre apparatus. She is creating anti-disciplinary performances on the crossover of mental health, AI ethics, and Data feminism. Her aesthetics are autofiction, tragicomedy, and absurdism.
Scientist
Anaïs is a PhD researcher at the University of Amsterdam. Her research work focuses on the long-lasting effects of cannabis consumption during adolescence on brain functioning. Specifically, she is interested in the Prefrontal Cortex, a region of the brain that is in charge of complex tasks such as decision-making and social behaviors.
Why settle for being “high-functioning” when you can turn your mental friction into a personal brand?
The cutting-edge Neuro-Maxxing™ protocol redefines human efficiency by treating cognitive divergence as a high-value, elite asset.
Developed by lead cognitive optimization architects Marina Orlova and Anaïs Notario Reinoso, this screening maps out your baseline Cognitive Friction Matrix to evaluate how effectively you can leverage traits like non-linear focus, variable task-initiation, and acute sensory processing for strategic advantage in your professional and social life.
This 40-minute group session tests your real-time behavioral responses under controlled, time-sensitive conditions.
Rather than tracking basic productivity, our on-site neuroscientist measures advanced metrics like Procrastination Velocity, Chronic Latency, and Anticipatory Paralysis to map your precise neurological capital.
Upon completion, every participant will receive a certified, stamped Cognitive Utility Profile containing precise recommendations on how to weaponize your mental state for maximum social capital.
