Applied Cosmology is integral...

External animorphic technologies blend with internal philosophical ontologies. A digital hommage to the occult significance of geometry superimposed over phylogeny. This resolution of fundamental dualities is the paridoxical nature of fractography. Conceptualy relevant and practically pertinent. Encrypted communications, mutometamorphigyrations.


It is a ripening of cosmological methodoligies. Holographicaly resonating with high speed tribal codexes, humorous stop motion granulations and animations to phantasmogorical computer generated nebulations, these synaptic spatial alchemies transform media membranes into episensory sonoluminous syntactics.

Audio Visual with intention!

Ikaro is a psudonym utlized to communicate an intention. The power of rhythm melody and harmony may be understood as a spiritual technology to invoke visions and propulse magical qualities. It has been said that these sogns are originating in the communication between the consciousness of the human being and the consciousness the is supraordinated within the plant kindome. In essence, ikaros may be described as a harmonic relationship between plant consciousness and human consciousness. The songs are sacred to the initiate for the purpose of inducing a state of being conducive with vision. Shaman are capable of acting as intermediaries between the initiate and their spirit realm. Ikaros are the access codes to akashic realms. The intention of these performances are akin to the preservation of this ensouled indigeounous wisdom within the spiritual technologies. It is the act of enticing the formless into form by virtue of high technology.

In the highly sensitized state of ayahuasca intoxication, the icaros help structure the vision. They can also modify the hallucinations themselves. Luna reports: "There are icaros for increasing or diminishing the intensity and color of the visions, for changing the color perceived, and for directing the emotional contents of the hallucinations."

Vegetalistas are masters of synaesthesia. Through using the most interesting acoustic effects produced by whistling and singing, the geometric designs can be seen acoustically. The maestros refer to an icaro as "my painted song," "my words with those designs," or "my ringing pattern."

The icaros are the quintessence of shamanic power. A good vegetalista is able to orchestrate beautiful or transformative visions through his or her magic melodies. Competitions sometimes arise between maestros to monopolize the visions of those present - a kind of cooperative "jam session".

Imagine enhancing your next event with multidimensional high definition visuals effects.

The Technology


"The work is conceptually graphic with an element of self organization. Within the chaos of media we are submerged in I strive to reveal the harmonics in what appears to be chaotic. Much of my content is sampled and transposed over analog film, the machines do all the work."

Jayson Oliver

VJ Culture

The intention

To provide a forum for research into the development of new technologies and anthroposophies as it pertains to blurring the line between sound and light.

"I utilize everything from junky VHS tapes to strange technological artifacts maybe even open source footage from the event to embed throughput and cycle consciousness at accelerated rates. I like to reveal the spirituality within technology, and utilize technology to do more with less".


Transform your interpretations and dreams into bold new artforms.

The statement

Applied Cosmology is a member of the Original Medicine Art Collective and strives to become an ever transmogrifying amalgam of artist creatives community and welcomes the idea of international and local collaboratives. What do you want to convey at your next event?
