join us on an extraordinary journey into the potential of your mind

Studio Dreammachine Immersive Event - Main Image

Welcome to our Studio, a new space in the centre of Hackney where you can experience a pilot version of Dreamachine in an intimate setting. Dreamachine is an immersive experience developed by an interdisciplinary team of artists, composers, technologists, scientists and philosophers. Conjured by a choreography of light and music, a colourful world will unfold behind your closed eyes, created by the power of your brain and completely unique to you. Sit back, close your eyes and join us on an extraordinary journey into the potential of your mind. Gather a group of friends for an evening session or make it part of your weekly routine. What will you see? How will you feel? You might see patterns and shapes, cities and landscapes, or abstract waves of shifting colours. It might feel like a rollercoaster ride, a journey through time and space, or you might even drift into sleep. Only you will know. The High Sensory experience: Please complete the pre-booking form before purchasing a ticket to the High Sensory experience. You will need to show email confirmation that you completed the form to be admitted to the experience. This experience combines flickering white lights - known as strobe lighting - with a bespoke score, to create a deeply personal and immersive experience. For many, the choreography of lights and music conjures colourful patterns and visuals behind closed eyes. This is a guided, seated experience that takes one hour, including time for reflection. About the Deep Listening experience: Curl up in a blanket, sit back, close your eyes and get lost in a moment that is just for you. Deep Listening is an audio experience designed to be enjoyed in the dark and to be as accessible as possible, for those who may have sensitivities to high sensory environments. If you are sensitive to loud music, ear defenders or ear plugs can be provided. The experience does not contain flashing lights and is considered suitable for autistic people and those with epilepsy, a learning disability, or a sensitivity to strobe lighting. This is a guided, seated experience that takes one hour, including time for reflection.

Audience Role

Studio Dreamachine has been designed to feel like a campfire: it is more intimate than the full Dreamachine experience, hosting up to 12 people at a time. Just like the Dreamachine, the Studio integrates space for individual and shared reflection. It features the same light sequence and score, but is hosted in a smaller space, so it does not include full spatial sound. Some sessions use headphones – and you can choose which experience you would like to visit at the time of your booking.
