Synapsody is an immersive encounter with your brain on music.  You will see and hear your brain firing in real time while learning to control brainwaves and explore your innate creativity.   Combining clinical research in neurofeedback with the fun and engagement of a videogame, Synapsody uses the power of music to help train your mind to focus longer, relax more deeply and tap into your unique potential while having fun! 

​

Using an EEG headset to pick up the electrical signals of your brainwaves, Synapsody maps them to a 3D model of your brain so you can see your synapses firing in real time.   Each brainwave has a musical sound so you can quickly learn to tell when you are using a specific brainwave and how that effects the way you think.  Consciously relaxing or focusing will change the music, and will be illuminated in real time onto the brain sculpture.  Players will learn to control their brainwaves using the music they create as their guide.
