Monom proudly presents:

SENSORIALITY: The AGAPÈ

An immersive approach to neuroscience and art through our senses

In collaboration with:

The EDGE Neuroscience & Art e.V./ MIND Foundation Art Section

We are thrilled to announce that on April 30th from 18h until after midnight we will host the celebration of the end of the SENSORIALITY workshop series with the fusion of a finissage: the AGAPÈ where we will commemorate the long-term relationship of The EDGE Neuroscience & Art eV/ MIND Foundation Art Section.

The AGAPÈ exhibits the produced art pieces of the Sensoriality workshop participants and the artworks of many other artists from the EDGE and MIND foundation communities. This unique curated event invites guests into the flowering citizen science community of Berlin aiming for the integration of knowledge and creativity into and beyond our bodies and minds through Sound, Art and Science.

On this date, alongside the art exhibition, we will present four sessions made up of two immersive sonic experiences. HALO, an experimental, sound/light installation created by KLING KLANG KLONG mixed in 4DSOUND by William Russell and Kling Klang Klong. The second part will be a Psychedelic Sonic Session mixed and composed by William Russell from Monom Studios.

HALO is an experimental sound and light installation exploring our relationship to color, both from an individual and cultural perspective. The installation contrasts our collective associations to color with the most personal experience of it: the afterimages created in the eyes after light exposure. During the experience a spatial sound composition accompanies the visitors through the alternating changes between the outer and their inner light to create a contemplative, emotional experience.

The Psychedelic Sonic Session is the product of the personal exploration of Monom co- founder and creative director William Russell. Since the creation of Monom, Russell has been researching the effects of the sounds of nature and how these, when enhanced, and manipulated through sound spatialization, can affect our states of consciousness, creating both contemplative and turbulent journeys. A pure and whole body listening experience, this session will take place in total darkness to entice listeners into a deep personal voyage.

To complement the experiences and promote dialogue and reflection, join us in the art gallery where we will have a neuro scientific guest speaker before the first session.
