To explore the effect of stimuli at the edge and boundaries to the physiological extremes of our senses. Initially the intention was to consider interaction with a digital interface considering all five of the different senses present in the external interface we call the skin: namely vision, sight, sound, smell and touch. Due to the broadness of the initial idea, only infrasound was considered as this had been previously considered in an earlier postgraduate diploma project and could be used in a way to engage people within science and art. Specifically, the engagement of infrasound and sound considered the engagement within a context of meditation and chakra frequencies where breath was used as a trigger. the infrasound results produced so far are not conclusive and more experimentation and further investigation has to be undertaken in this respect.
