THE SONOSPHERE
Louisa Firethorne
The Sonosphere is a kinetic and interactive light/sound installation art piece which is also a powerful tool for experiencing the full body effect of resonance using cymatic principals. The Sonosphere experience induces a deep hypnotic state, a respite for the mind, a sound massage for the body, and the exploration of consciousness through brain wave entrainment. Over the last decade it has transformed into a truly amazing installation, which has touched many people’s lives through the unique experience it provides; a reconnection with the human experience through the senses.
The Sonosphere sitting platform is fitted with resonant tactile transducers, that translate sound into physical vibration. Combined with a world class Surround Sound system, the Sonosphere 'transduces' one’s mind state by stimulating or “inducing” a change of mental perspective using the science of harmonic resonance, and an immersive 'sphere' of sound.
The copper sphere spins around the experiencer at a variable controlled rate, which can be linked with the rhythm of the sounds being played. The spinning of the sphere aids in a quick hypnotic state induction, and the copper serves as a grounding rod for static electricity that may be hanging out in the room.
The Sonosphere has been used for meditation, relaxation, feeling more embodied, hypnotherapy, art therapy, next-level music listening, sound massage, and has been shown to produce a calming effect in almost anyone, including autistic children. The Sonosphere also offers deaf and blind people a people a new way to participate in art and music with others. For more details about the science behind the sonosphere click HERE.
