QUALIA
An Immersive Experience Weaving Art, Science, and Ancient Wisdom
Multiple Dates in Multiple Planetariums
Qualia is an immersive journey of music and encompassing visuals designed to awaken your senses, deepen your connection with nature, and inspire inner transformation.
Brought to you by Chambers of Awe, QUALIA bridges the ancient and the modern, the visible and the invisible. Unlike virtual reality, it unfolds in a communal space, under a dome, emphasizing the irreplaceable value of direct, embodied, shared experience.
Written, performed, and directed by Laura Inserra, QUALIA invites you to step into awe and wonder, and reconnect with the profound beauty and mystery of life.
The music — performed on ceremonial instruments used for centuries in sacred traditions — is offered as sound medicine.
The visuals — mainly drawn from real-world imagery and scientific data — are a reverent homage to the beauty and authenticity of what is real in a time when so much is simulated.
The word ‘qualia’ refers to the ineffable, subjective experiences each of us has — the colors we see, the emotions we feel, the meaning we assign to the world around us. It reminds us that reality is not something outside of us, but something we co-create within.
This is your QUALIA. Let your journey begin…

"My work is a weaving of music, ancient wisdom, field recordings, and cutting-edge technology. I create opportunities to deepen our relationship to ourselves, to each other, and to nature. I provide environments where we can experience the luminous essence of being human. I use music to enhance consciousness, inner transformation, and integrated healing." ~ Laura Inserra
Music awakens what is dormant in us
Laura Inserra is a world renowned sound alchemist and technician of the sacred - sound healer, educator, multi-instrumentalist, public speaker, and multimedia producer. She lives and creates at the confluence of music from around the globe, ancient wisdom traditions, and cutting-edge technology.
Both a self-taught and classically trained musician, her career has many facets. A world-renowned Hang musician, Laura plays a large variety of rare ancient and modern instruments from around the world. She composes in various musical languages and performs in many different settings — from intimate spaces to large venues seating thousands.
She utilizes cutting-edge technology to augment the natural sources of her instruments, creating Chambers of AWE - immersive music environments designed to enhance profound states of relaxation, deepen our relationship with the natural world, and facilitate inner transformation and healing.
Combining her intimate knowledge of music with her studies of ancient schools of wisdom, she developed a practice called MetaMusic Healing, a unique kind of sound healing, ancient wisdom practices, and shamanic techniques. In her practice music becomes experiential, personalized medicine, and a metaphor of life. Her work was recently highlighted in the NYT bestseller book Your ‘Brain on Art’ by Ivy Ross and Susan Magsamen.
Laura’s music has been scientifically validated for its transformational impact, showing measurable improvements in physical, mental, and emotional health and well-being. Her work has also been selected by Johns Hopkins for research exploring how sound can enhance our health and expand our understanding of consciousness.
She conducts transformative leadership retreats and corporate programs with senior executive teams of leading public and private companies. She is also actively engaged in creating multimedia immersive experiences in the most cutting-edge global conferences and summits.
Laura is the co-founder of Seeds of Gold Institute, a non-profit organization whose mission is to research and integrate ancient technology and schools of wisdom into modern life. The institute is dedicated to helping individuals, groups, and the global community in the journey of personal growth and collective evolution.

What is MetaMusic?
Music is a universal language and allows us to have meta-sensory experiences, especially when combined with guided meditations, active visualizations, body awareness, and felt emotions.
Meta means beyond, transcendent, in between. What is music a metaphor of? What is in between the notes and way beyond the musical instruments that makes music such a potent transformative and impactful tool? What is in music that makes us transcend reality or our feelings?
Since I was a child I have been living in big questions and explorations like these while immersing myself into the aliveness of the visible and the invisible worlds. MetaMusic is the way in which I communicate my discoveries around using sound, ancient wisdom, and technology to create physical, mental, and energetic openings and transformations.
In this context music becomes experiential, a vehicle to transit into new states of consciousness, and a tool for personal and collective evolvement.

"We are slowed down sound and light waves,
a walking bundle of frequencies tuned into the cosmos.
We are souls dressed up in sacred biochemical garments and our bodies are the instruments through which our souls play their music."
