What is a Brain Machine?
A Brain Machine is a fascinating device that generates light and sound pulses at brainwave frequencies. These can help achieve various states of consciousness, such as meditation or improved sleep.
In this workshop for total beginners we will all make a Brain Machine that is preprogrammed with a really nice meditation sequence. As well as a device that can help you relax and meditate, a nice bonus is that everyone hallucinates beautiful colors and patterns along the way.
The Brain Machine is totally open hardware, and created to be hackable, so you can re-program it with any computer and software that is free to download and use.

What to Bring

• Curiosity and enthusiasm for neurotechnology
• Basic soldering skills (not mandatory, but helpful)

All necessary materials will be provided. Space is limited, so sign up quickly! Let's explore the boundaries of our consciousness together and have a lot of fun in the process. We look forward to seeing you there!
