[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]In 1901, American physician Dr Duncan Macdougall speculated\u00a0through his experiment\u00a0that the human soul has weight. He weighed his six patients who were in the process of dying from tuberculosis, and 21 grammes were reduced after the each patient passed away.<\/p>\n
The existence of the human soul has constantly been disputed in human life. Although there have been a number of experiments and substantial research\u00a0from scientists and physicians\u00a0to find evidence of the soul,\u00a0many people still deny its existence.<\/p>\n
The Soul Catcher is a speculative device about the existence of the human soul. The device is designed to calculate the weight of 3 different biological conditions of the human body: breath, heart rate and forehead energy. \u00a0This project postulates the empirical existence of the human soul by taking a more medical, scientific perspective on this spiritual topic. Consequently, it gives people the opportunity to form their own opinion about the existence of the human soul.<\/p>\n
