Everything is connected.
Primal Ritual moves you to see it.
Profound tool for personal reflection and connection, inspiring to rediscover the deep, universal narratives resonating within.

Primal Ritual Environment Enhancer - PREE
You smoothly [or roughly!] merge with freshly crafted light fractals using hands or body, flashlight, laser, candle... and niche sensitive custom-built control board.

PREE might be deployed anywhere, permanent architectural source of lighting, or single events.
Each PREE is site-specific, merging with the space and making it better place to be.

It is not easy to describe the functionality of PREE in words, so perhaps VIDEOS WILL HELP.

How

Looking into the fire.
Sacred state where energy holding the shape is released within light and heat.
Matter loses form and falls apart, reminding what is our essence.
In flames one can see the inner self. Imagination unleashed.
People have looked into flames since the beginning of time. First human ritual. PRIMAL RITUAL

Exploring the way things develop you may find the same intelligence behind that process, no matter what kind of "thing" it is.
In microstructures of tissues and minerals, plants, bodies, formations of stars and galaxies - the ubiquitous, yet hidden archetypal symbols of pure symmetry, fractal generation, repeating cycles of inception, evolution and extinction... showing there might be universal connection behind all.

Why

Independent scientific studies agree about the positive effect of interaction with fractals on human consciousness,
witha measurable effect on stress regulation, perceptual processing, and emotional response.
