​
​Based on interview research, and personal experiences with talk therapy, hypnotherapy, dreamwork, sandplay, somatics, and reiki, this experimental, music-driven work-in-progress is an exploration of where and when our truest selves emerge through a series of sound pieces.

​Currently in development as an online, interactive, binaural listening experience, this project aims to create playful connection and intimacy with audience members at home and/or in-venue in a digital space.
