Resonant Reveries: A Cybernetic Meditation
Experiencing the influence of our minds through a mesmerizing immersion.
Co-create a visual dance by moving suspended pendulums with your mind. In Resonant Reveries, a portable EEG sensor measures brainwaves in real time, causing the piece to respond to each participant’s neural patterns. Whether it’s the drift of a daydream, the clarity of focus, or the pulse of meditation, these inner states become motion as the pendulums swing, pause, or shift in response to your brain activity.
The installation’s neurofeedback system transforms mental phenomena into spatial choreography, offering an artistic response to the work by the Centre for Buddhist Studies at the University of Hong Kong. Created for the Being Human Festival, Resonant Reveries is an installation by media artist Chris Cheung (h0nh1m) that explores the idea that our minds do not exist in isolation—even in quiet moments, our inner world sends echoes that connect us, forming a shared rhythm of silent energy.
A limited number of group sessions will be offered on weekends. Participants will join a group meditation led by the Centre of Buddhist Studies, before entering the space to experience the artwork as an interactive group meditation. This will be followed by an artistic team Q&A session.
Registration is required.
