Inner Light

Inner Light is a hybrid art + science experiment that coalesces three topics - (1) embodied VR, (2) EEG neurofeedback, and (3) meditating on Light. It is an artistic project to explore the subject of meditation and self-awareness through embodied cognition and brain waves. This VR experience provides guided audio and visuals based on a player’s brain activity to induce a relaxed but focused mental state. It offers a unique visualization of the body-mind complex, asking questions about who we are in relation to our body and mind, and who we are beyond it. Inspired by the insights from my own meditation practice, I have tried to emulate the revelation and replicate it in a VR medium. Through this experience, I invite participants to embody their own mental frequencies and, at the climax, discover the feeling of ascending the body.
