Neuromask Toolbox - A Primer for Using Masks as Neuroarts Canvas for Brain Health
The Neuromask Toolbox demonstrates how a citywide cohort of schoolkids caught in an earthquake - the quake kids - made the first curated collection of 'neuromasks' by using their brains differently to tune into the nonlocal awareness. Although their collective story is about surviving well in a natural disaster here in Aotearoa New Zealand, the wisdom gleaned can be applied universally.
