Session Description: Learn how to easily deepen your sleep cycle and support your immune system using research-based sound techniques during this immersive virtual sound-bathing experience. Headphones highly recommended.


About Joshua W Bruner: Joshua W Bruner inadvertently stumbled upon neurofeedback composition through his deep curiosities of music and brainwaves. Upon realizing how powerful his own experiences were, he set out on a path to learn and share the relaxing & creative powers of sound and neurofeedback with others. With over 20 years on the stage exploring many styles of music and touring throughout a dozen countries, Joshua eventually decided to direct his passion for composing music towards meditation and preventative healthcare purposes in 2017. He now composes music by monitoring/sonifying his brainwaves using EEG neurofeedback, an intriguing art-form which has been around for several decades.

Night Brain: Experimental Night!

Join us in our ‘DRIFT Zoom room’ or on our ‘Flower & Frequency FB Live’ as we collaborate with tape label Aural Canyon to release a series of virtual ambient concerts performed by Joshua W Bruner.

What to expect:

There will be live brainwave projections and brainwave generated music to listen to live on your device.

Zoom on a laptop will give the best stereo listening. FB Live and cell phone listening will be a slightly less quality experience but still 100% enjoyable. Headphones or stereo speakers recommended.

We’re doing 4 of these events in June. Each 10-20 minutes long.

Donations help us keep DRIFT a free resource for people to relax with. We appreciate your support!

“Beginning in the late 1950’s, Stan Shaff’s early work with tape compositions and with live performance led to a growing conviction that space was an inherent dimension of music. For the past nearly half-century, his pursuit has been the discovery, exploration and development of this spatial musical dimension, which Stan and co-creator, Doug McEachern (original systems and equipment designer) named AUDIUM. AUDIUM creates a new vocabulary for the field of music. It is a physically accessible medium for composer and tape performer, and a three-dimensional, spatial musical experience for the listener. Through the years, from early performance spaces to the current theatre, different combinations of words have been used in an attempt to capture the essence of the medium of spatial sound-performance in a controlled environment: AUDIUM: a sound-space continuum; sound-sculptured space; a spatial sound environment; a theatre of sound.”
