chromatose

Chromatic Hypnosis - Psychedelic Projections and Healing Harmonics.

A unique audio/visual sound-healing journey. Surreal visuals are combined with sonic frequencies which are synchronized in real-time via custom software. Analog instruments like gongs and singing bowls are accompanied by electronically synthesized ambient soundscapes.

It is well known that both audio and visual stimuli can induce brainwave entrainment . When the two mediums are combined the effect is compounded, rapidly delivering participants into hypnotic trance-like states. This effect is well researched and caused by the brain increasing alpha and theta wave activity (commonly associated with deep relaxation, meditation, and hypnosis). Many scientific studies have been conducted on this topic which suggest a variety of health benefits.

The first installment of the Chromatose series, titled “Kanal”, uses original footage from the canals of Berlin shot by IndexThumb , with healing sounds performed by Kimi Recor . Kanal delivers a sense of the web of relationships in this little ecosystem, as one might experience them in altered states of consciousness.
