What states we are normally in at different times? Research shows that although one brainwave state may be dominant at any one time, the other brain states are present at …
Alpha Waves
EEG Coherence Effects of Audio-Visual Stimulation (AVS) at Dominant and Twice Dominant Alpha Frequency
The effects of a single session of audio-visual stimulation (AVS) at the dominant alpha rhythm and twice-dominant alpha frequency on EEG coherence were studied in 23 subjects. An eyes-closed baseline …
Alpha Brain Waves Boost Creativity and Reduce Depression
Neuroscientists recently made a correlation between an increase of alpha brain waves—either through electrical stimulation or mindfulness and meditation—and the ability to reduce depressive symptoms and increase creative thinking. Our …
From Stroboscope to Dream Machine – A History of Flicker-Induced Hallucinations
When early neurophysiologists, like William Grey Walter (1910–1977), started using intermittent photic driving in electroencephalography, they were struck by a wide range of visual hallucinations that were reported. In current …
Neural interactions between flicker-induced self-organized visual hallucinations and physical stimuli
Spontaneous pattern formation in cortical activity may have consequences for perception, but little is known about the interaction between sensory-driven and self-organized cortical activity. To address this deficit, we explored …
Revelations by Flicker, Dream machines and Electroencephalographic signals in art
How did ordinary tools in the Neurophysiology department become a means for spiritual enlightenment? The combination of brainwave (EEG) monitoring by the early adopters with stroboscopes induced side-effects in many …
Academic Performance Enhancement with Photic Stimulation and EDR Feedback
This study was designed to test the possibility that training with the Biolight, a combined audio/visual stimulation (AVS) and EDR feedback device, would result in positive changes in academic performance. …
Brainwave Frequency Listing
This is a listing of frequencies that various parties have claimed can affect the human mind or body in some way. The following sorts of frequencies are included : Brainwave …
How your Brainwaves shape your Reality
Knowing how to identify your brainwave state is the first step in consciously shifting it All of our thoughts, emotions and behaviours are rooted in the communication between neurons. Naturally …
Addiction and Brainwave Entrainment
Treating addictions with Brainwave Entrainment (BWE) is multi-dimensional. The usual protocol is to use entrainment as a substitute for the substance. Quite often those that are addicted to depressive drugs …
