观众头戴脑机接口（BCI），它将捕捉来自观众视觉皮层的脑波信号(Brain wave)，
使得眼睛的睁开和闭合成为切换感知模式的开关。

闭眼将点亮近在咫尺的灯泡，光的穿透力使我们依然感受它的存在，却无法清晰辨识，
在我们脱离视觉的同时，我们将更全面的感受周围，感知模式的切换带领我们进入冥想状态。
光似乎是来自你的内部世界，和自身形成一种共鸣，随着闭眼的持续，光将越来越亮；
直到我们睁开眼睛，灯泡将渐渐熄灭，同时我们也逐步回到现实。

Audience are required to wear BCI, which captures brain wave from visual cortex,
turning opening and closure of eyes as a perception mode switch.

Closing eyes light the bulb within a short distance.
The light permeates, and we can still sense it with eyes closed.
Though we cannot identify it with a clear visual image,
the absence of visual senses allow us to perceive the surroundings even more thoroughly.
This switch in perception mode takes us to a moment of meditation.

You feel as if the light came from within your body and resonated with yourself.
The longer you close your eyes, the brighter the light becomes.
The bulb will not switch off until we open our eyes,
while bringing us back to the reality.
