The work rota is an experiment: it combines scientific research with artistic production. At this application different light frequencies and sounds can be triggered by the user, which can lead to specific effects on perception while reckoning the screen. Rota deals in this way with the impact of audio-visual stimulation on human perception and refers to the ideas of the Beatnik movement since the 50s. At that time Boris Gysin developed among other things a dream- or mind machine, to effectuate a mind expanding function through the production of alpha waves.
