Anxiety as a Gift — Cybernetic Ritual is a 15-minute audiovisual neurofeedback experience where brainwave activity, guided narration, sound, image, AI, and emotion come together in a responsive immersive world. Wearing headphones and an EEG headband, the participant enters a poetic system that observes shifts in their inner state and translates them into evolving visual and sonic forms. Rather than treating anxiety as something to suppress, the work invites it to become material: a signal, a rhythm, a creative force. Part proof of concept, part ritual, Anxiety as a Gift explores how clinical research, biofeedback, and artistic expression can meet in an intimate encounter between the nervous system and the machine.
