Neuroaesthetics, Artificial Intelligence, and Digital Performance: Hermeneutics, Narrative, and the Transformation of Aesthetic Experience from Hamlet to Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead

Abstract

Revised version of an interdisciplinary research article examining the relationship between neuroaesthetics, artificial intelligence, deep learning, hermeneutics, digital performance, narrative, authorship, and aesthetic experience. The study uses Shakespeare’s Hamlet and Tom Stoppard’s Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead as comparative theatrical and literary cases. This version has been substantially revised and prepared for journal submission.
