<br> 

A [http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/ideas/graphics/011109_hacking_your_brain/ Ganzfeld Experiment] uses simple and easily available or assemble-able items to create a wearable device that induces hallucinations after about 5 - 10 minutes. 

<br> 

A description of the 3 devices to be used, and instructions (for an [http://www.arduino.cc/ arduino] based device) is here:&nbsp; [http://tziteras.blogspot.com/2009/11/green-noise-experiment.html]<br> 

<br> 

Green noise is defined as "mid frequency white noise" with an emphasis on the range around 500hz. It sounds like an average of many natural sounds. 

<br> 

By submitting for just 20 minutes to the green noise experiment, you can hack your brain, cleanse your mind and perhaps be reborn an eco-hero.<br> 

<br> 

There will be up to 3 machines, generating either green, pink or white noise available from 12-5pm on Sunday in the entrance to the Arnolfini Bizbar on the first floor, and a space in which to sit down. First come first served. 

<br> 

Plans will be available.
