About The Sacred World Research Laboratory:
The Sacred World Research Laboratoryis a state-of-the art research and design think-tank whose projects explore innovation created by building bridges between techno-and traditional cultures.
In an era of accelerating change, the laboratory works with the world's spiritual cultures to develop new forms of media and documentation so that perennial wisdom can be captured and made accessible to all. The documentation of traditional cultures is not just a passive exercise of “Scanning-in Culture!” Instead, the laboratory’s work has shown and continues to show that engagement with culture provokes a fundamental re-questioning of the form of computer user interfaces; hence, such engagement with culture is a valuable process to spark off technological innovation.
