The Wild Divine - a biofeedback game from Deepak Chopra

[Rohiniranjan]

Dr. Deepak Chopra has promoted (probably financed too) a series of computer games that are based on biofeedback principles. Available in different packages, one gets hardware, known as the magic stone (an interface) with one end going into the USB port on your computer and the other end has three finger tip electrodes that measure the GSR and heart rate changes and these signals are processed and fed back into the computer and you can control the game elements through that. Clever concept! There are several games which are essentially exercises that help you relax in a controlled manner and there is a neat utility that graphs the squiggles and responses as well. The passages and WD II and healing rhythms and particle game are some of the games available.

I do not know if the module is 'closed' or not but if not, perhaps other programmers may look into it to provide games that can utilize the hardware. I have a feeling that it is going to be quite popular as time goes. Everyone needs a break from stress which seems to be mounting up and up, perhaps correlated with price of gas (petrol)!!

Hi,
Yes I agree, journey to wild divine is amazing.
I have it on my website and blog because I think that everyone can benefit from it. It is a great game and it really is exceptional as a biofeedback tool.
I really would love to see more games come out similar to this. It would start a whole new genre of entertainment!


Namaste,

Susanna
