The best way to improve HRV quickly is to focus on activating your parasympathetic system while minimizing the influence of the sympathetic system responsible for the fight-or-flight response. You can do it through sleep, breathing, exercise, rest, and proper nutrition.
Bodymind metronome that entrains fractal variability in movement, heart, breathing, and perception.
How is the framework of panarchy and ecological change related to fractal variability?
Variability is one of the main qualities that EightOS practice cultivates. Our practice promotes variability on the physical level, through movement and breathing, but also on the cognitive level, through perception, learning, and communication. But why is variability so important and how does it affect health and well-being?
In September 2022, we hosted a series of immersive events at Martin Gropius Bau in Berlin. This event was a part of Breathe, a discourse programme that unfolded in echo to the exhibition YOYI! Care, Repair, Heal and explored how different power relations impact our ability to breathe. The programme was curated by Magnus Elias Rosengarten.
Motion tracking tripod sensor that can be used to provide haptic, sonic, and visual feedback on movement and control the sound using the body.
The new sensors that can detect movement and current dynamics for multiple participants, sharing the data via Wi-Fi with the others and via the OSC protocol to produce a musical landscape.
In this article, we present a novel way of choreographing movement with fractal feedback using motion caption and haptic sensors. The practitioners receive a visual, sonic, and kinaesthetic signal about their current dynamic state, which they can interpret to change their movement pattern or to maintain it further.
Swarm formations are very common to find in nature. They are based on a few simple rules that lead to complex behaviors. Taking as inspiration the studies that have been done on swarms in biology and for military applications we demonstrate how these principles could be used to choreograph collective actions.
