Sean Rogg - From exploiting trauma as an artistic medium to creating a revolutionary new mental health solution in the Metaverse

Sean Rogg discusses his journey through immersive art, blending themes of trauma and euphoria to create intense, multi-sensory audience experiences. The core of his work relies on guiding individuals through challenging performances, which serve to unlock deeper states of emotional presence and connection. These initial stage-based collaborations evolved into "The Wall of Project," where Rogg utilized complex choreography, light, and soundscapes to create shared, meditative bonds between participants. Rogg's trajectory led to the conceptualization and development of "Awen," a VR platform aimed at delivering quantifiable mental health outcomes, particularly for anxiety. By isolating and digitizing the elements that proved effective in his live performances, such as biological synchronization and rhythmic light stimulation, he seeks to scale these therapeutic effects globally within the Metaverse.
