A GSR Biofeedback device, which measures the intensity of emotional states, was utilized as source material and modulated through processing.

Neuro: Reality is processed by our five senses and nervous system into experience.

Linguistic: Our experience is coded, organized and given meaning by language and non-verbal communication systems.

Programming: Discovering, using and changing our behavior, language and non-verbal communication systems to achieve desired outcomes or directions.
