Extend Educational Methods

• By Recognizing the Bio-energetic Aspect of Being
  Human
• By Incorporating Neurological Learning into
• Educational Programs
• By Expanding Awareness for Self-Healing and
  Nonverbal Brainwave Communication
• Similar to Eastern Mindfulness Training in
  Practice
• Next Step Brainwave Learning Games Online

What is a Brainwave Game

• Brainwave Game is a 3-D Object Oriented
  Environment Designed to Interact with Brainwaves
• Created with the Quartz Composer Application
• Uses the Quartz Editor to Create Patches
• Brainwave Data Interact with Object and
  FunctionPatches
• Objects are Multimedia Elements
• Data Trigger Brainwave Switches Using EEG
• Trains the Brain for Greater Brainpower
• More Brainpower Increases Latent Capabilities

Brainwave Switches
Box like structures isolate areas of brainwave
data and encapsulate parameter values defined by
each boxacting as a brainwave switch. Switches
assign neural control to multimedia elements as
object patches and to volume and filtering in
audio tracks.

Playing a Brainwave Game

• Strap on a Headband with 3 Electrodes
• Quiet the Mind
• Practice Stillness
• Monitor Brainwaves Using EEG
• Practice Brainwave Switching to Animate Objects
  and to Make Sound
• Analyze Body, Mind, and Brain State
• Experiential Gaming

Brainwave switches change the color of the lotus
and movement of the water in Quicktime Movies

Brainwave Communities

• Upload Brainwaves to Servers
• Download Brainwaves from Servers
• Use Brainwave Data with GamingEnvironments
• Upload Quartz Movies and Animate withBrainwaves
  
• Create Online Brainwave Communities
• Participants Practice Nonverbal Communication

Brainwave Coherence Health

• Sustained Coherence in Low FrequenciesIncreases
  Relaxation and Focuses Mental Attention
• Eliminates Noise in Brain Wave Data
• Creates Balance in Body Chemistry
• Decreases Heart Rate, Blood Pressure, and
  Shortness of Breath
• Evens Respiration for Deep Breathing and
  Increases Gastrointestinal Activity

Brainwave Coherence
Brainwave coherence on the left of the image
indicates coherence in the alpha, theta, delta
bands.
Left and right hemisphere data that occurred the
same time as the coherence data in the top left
image.
Left and right hemisphere data that occurred the
same time as the coherence data in the bottom
left image.
Slight brainwave coherence is indicated in this
data.

Perceptual Awareness

• Eliminates Stress From the Body/Mind
• Prepares the Body and Mind for Creative
  Thought and Problem Solving
• Activates Natural Brain Systems
• Allows Activity that Seems Humanly Impossible

Perceptual Awareness of the SubtleVibratory
Aspects of Reality Become More Dominant as
Coherence Increases. Karl Pribram

Nonverbal Communication
In our deepest states of consciousness, we are
able to explore multiple universes and
multi-dimensional projection spaces. Projections
of this kind may go beyond daily perceptive space
to deeper cognitive spaces.
Dr. John Lilly, M.D.

Brainwave Audio

• MAX/MSP and GarageBand Applications and any
  Music Application that Supports Audio Unit (AU)
• IBVA4 AUPlug-in Module for Audio Unit
• Create Musical Compositions as Other Dimensional
  Projections.

16
Experiential Learning

• Game Begins as Soon as You are ConnectedVia
  Bluetooth Peripheral
• Learn While Playing
• Brainpower Increases the More You Play
• Self-Analysis by Studying Psychic and Bio
  Feedback
• Analyze How the Body Feels in High Beta, Medium
  Beta, Low Beta, Alpha, Theta, Delta
• Brainwave Switch In and Out by Will
