This audiovisual performance features sound reactive generative visuals built in Touchdesigner.

This sonic journey features binaural textures from Delta to Alpha frequencies & explores the theme of transcending conflict to try and find peace.  The visuals continue to explore audiovisual entrainment and were built using touchdesigner and the tdableton component.

Audiovisual set with R10 At BETA X - Leicester, UK. April 2022

Experimental AVE [Audiovisual Entrainment] Live set At the LCB Depot's Lightbox Gallery, for the launch of DIGITAL - Dec 3rd, 2021

Audio-Visual Entrainment (AVE) uses pulses of light and sound at specific frequencies to gently guide the brain into various brainwave patterns. By altering your brainwave frequencies, it is possible to impact mood, focus, sleep patterns, cognition etc.

This live set is a brief sonic excursion from Delta to Beta frequencies (1HZ - 30HZ) with the aim of investigating what the effects of AVE could be away from its formal (clinical) use and presented in the context of a cultural experience.

Arpegiyo was a track I composed for a gig with LEONIE. The band consisted of

Leonie DuBarry-Gurr
Luke Broughton
David Conrad Dhonau
Matt Rogerson

Supporting CLT DRP & Maybeshewill
at the Islington Assembly Rooms, London April 22nd 2022

This is the Full version, recorded using binaural frequencies in the Delta, Theta and Alpha range.

Going back to my heritage: Arpegiyo is a Hindu translation of the word “arpeggio” which comes from the Italian word “arpeggiare,” which literally means "to play on a harp."

Vocals from Leonie Dubarry-Gurr in binaural audio.  The visual were built in #touchdesigner and continues my theme of experimental Audio-visual entrainment (AVE) 

AVE is a subset of brainwave entrainment, uses flashes of lights and pulses of tones to guide the brain into various states of brainwave activity.

Twilight Sedation

Supporting @billionoclock at the Lightbox Gallery
Leicester, UK.  02 07 22

Vocals from Leonie DG which I’ve converted to binaural audio.  These range from Delta frequencies ~ 3.5Hz to Alpha frequencies ~ 11Hz.   The visual were built in Touchdesigner and continues my theme of experimental Audio-visual entrainment. (AVE is a subset of brainwave entrainment, uses flashes of lights and pulses of tones to guide the brain into various states of brainwave activity).

The audience members were effectively agreeing to be collectively hypnotised.  Essentially what our government, the mass media etc are already doing to us on a daily basis  - the fundamental difference is that the underlying message shifts from a fear to love.

Wu Wei (2022 )

"Wu Wei, an audiovisual creation by AJH, delves into the essence of nothingness and the art of effortless action. Inspired by the principles of the Tao Te Ching, this composition aims to capture the transformative power of restful inaction. Embracing Zhuangzi's wisdom to 'smash your form and body, spit out hearing and eyesight,' it invites viewers to forget their individuality and merge into a profound unity with the deep and boundless.

This experimental masterpiece, tagged carries the spiritual essence of Taoism and resonates with the ethos of Wu Wei. Immerse yourself in the intersection of Chinese philosophy and avant-garde creation, meticulously crafted using touchdesigner. An auditory and visual journey that transcends boundaries in 2022, echoing the timeless wisdom of the Tao."
