The Godfather of Flow breaking it down at TED

 

 

From our keynote at the Advertising Research Foundation's annual summit in NYC, breaking down Flow in Creativity, Flow in the Workplace and Flow in Branding

 

 

The Art of Flow--a teaser of what's possible in integrative digital experience design.

 

Put it on Full Screen, turn your speakers up to 11, boot up your Azumio HRV app, and enjoy!

 Big wave surfing captured with the Phantom 1000 FPS camera (time dilation--one of the core criteria of Flow states), Travis Rice hucking massive Alaskan lines (mirror neurons firing like mad as we imagine ourselves doing the same), and isochronic Alpha brainwave entrainment under the soundtrack (driving us into the awake/aware alpha state correlated with Flow)

For extra bio-feedback, download Azumio's iPhone app Stress Doctor and have it measure your breathing rate and heart rate variability (HRV) as you watch.

Just a  small example of what's possible when designing experiences that "reverse engineer the genome of Flow."
