HEMI–SYNTHESIS: A Deep Listening Composition in Binaural Field

HEMI–SYNTHESIS: A Deep Listening Composition in Binaural Field

In the PRS Lecture Room!

Hemi–Synthesis is a live, acoustic performance rooted in the principles of hemispheric synchronization—where neural entrainment guides the left and right hemispheres of the brain into resonance and dialogue. At the intersection of avant-garde experimentation, neuroscience, and sound healing, it invites a deep-listening journey into the terrain of our own inner expanse, where the body becomes both the instrument and the vessel for all that is Spirit.

Attendees are encouraged to bring a water bottle, a shawl / light blanket and an eye pillow.

Patricia will also be leading a silent meditation and a sharing circle between both sessions. It is complimentary to everyone.

Ticket Price: $30 (in-person event only).

A few community spots are available, please email [email protected] to learn more.

Please email [email protected] or phone 323-663-2167 with any questions.

Please Note: The PRS Lecture Room is only accessible via stairs. PRS wants all guests to be able to enjoy our events safely and comfortably. If you require any accessibility accommodation, please reach out to [email protected] before showtime and we will be happy to assist you.
