Ordnance Survey - Biofeedback Suite LP Launch
Homebeat
13 December
Biofeedback Suite is a scientific experiment of sorts. The LP uses EEG information from brainwaves. Many of the tracks on this LP incorporate a Brainwave Synthesizer, which along with the use of an EEG Headset, the spectrum waves bands were used to influence on elements of the modular synthesiser’s filters and envelopes training, this process was used as a compositional tool. Further to this, binaural beats were used to entrain certain mental states which include: Delta: 1-4 Hz: Deep Sleep, Theta: 4-8 Hz: Meditation, Alpha: 8-14 Hz: Relaxation/Focus, Beta: 14-30 Hz: Attention/Cognition, Gamma: 30-100 Hz: Memory/Creativity.
Guest on the LP collaborators include Iarla O Lionard (Vocals) & Colm O Ciosiog (My Bloody Valentine) – Drums. For this show, Ordnance Survey will present the LP using modular synthesizers and analog tape machines with visuals designed by Gavin O’Brien.
