Installations, live events and workshops that explore how sound shapes attention. Each one tested the same idea, that attention shapes behavior, and now lives inside Sonari's workshops and talks.
Installation and workshops, Shenzhen
Interactive sensory activities, audible paintings and workshops that blended sound, touch and sight, inviting people to experience the world beyond their usual senses.
What it explores: How differently each of us processes the same input.

Installation, Cape Town
An exhibition exploring conscious and unconscious responses to everyday sound triggers, through the tension between misophonia and synesthesia: sound as both pain and pleasure.
What it explores: Why the same sound can calm one person and overwhelm another.

Listening room
A listening room built for processing sensory overwhelm, where a recorded storm and complete solitude ask one question: what comes to mind when no one tells you what to think?
What it explores: Recovery, and what surfaces when external noise stops.

Research foundations
Sonari's thesis, that attention shapes behavior, draws on established ideas from psychology about attention, environment and story.
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Flow Theory
Deep, absorbed attention happens when an experience holds us fully. Sonari designs sessions that make it easier to reach that state, and teaches people how to protect it at work.
James Gibson, Ecological Perception Theory
What we perceive depends on the space around us. That's why Sonari treats sound, light and setting as part of attention, not background.
Richard Gerrig, Narrative Transportation Theory
When people become absorbed in a story, their attitudes and intentions can shift with it. Sonari's keynotes and workshops use story and live experience so ideas are felt, not just heard.
