Braingasm

ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response, which is more of a pseudo-scientific reference to an intimate - no, not sexual - experience we've all had and that some of us have shared, but haven't had any way to express it. The link below will take you to a YouTube trailer for the documentary, Braingasm - no, it's not sexual - in which you'll learn more about this phenomenon and see some of the best ASMR artists...one of whom calls herself 'Maria GentleWhispering' (pictured here), and I think she's one of the best at making videos that help you to experience ASMR by creating an ideal setting - both visual and auditory - that works as a 'trigger' for ASMR.

Just use ASMR (or Maria GentleWhispering) as a keyword in your search on YouTube, and you'll find dozens of videos designed by people who love to create and to share their creations - and their experiences - with us.

I find ASMR works well for me when I need to quiet that noisy 'inner voice' so that I can better create art; perhaps you will find it helpful, too.

Someone else posted about it recently too.. . http://fineartamerica.com/showmessages.php?messageid=1996757

 

Since Heather has graciously indicated that this is a duplicate post, it is now CLOSED.

BUT...you should take my advice regarding the work of ASMR artist, Maria GentleWhispering anyway, and experience her videos as she is still the best!
