Five thousand people gathered from seven countries at the Brain Art Festival at New York’s Radio City Music Hall. There they were inspired to change their lives and the world for the better by utilizing the brain’s infinite potential for health, happiness, and creativity.
Watch the recap in this short video:
The evening was hosted by the International Brain Education Association (IBREA), and featured an interactive multimedia lecture by its founder, Ilchi Lee. Lee, who was introduced by Broadway legend and nine-time Tony Award-winner Tommy Tune, took the audience through an entertaining and informative demonstration of an important concept in Brain Education--Brain Art.
Ilchi Lee’s lecture and training was interspersed with compelling multimedia presentations and inspiring dance and musical performances from Harlem choir God’s Generation, enchanting Japanese soprano Naoko Noma, and world premiere drummer and percussionist, Robin Dimaggio, among others.
Preceding the lecture, the audience was roused by a heart-thumping combined performance by a South Korean drumming group, Earth Star Poong Ryu Do Kids Drum Team, and break-dance troupe, Dahngoon B-Boys, as well as the Power Brain Student Leaders from New York area schools. Then a poignant yet powerful ki gong performance called Chun Bu Shin Gong combined 81 performers with haunting music and an Asian calligraphy backdrop.
As part of the Festival, the audience was treated to the impressive benefits of Brain Wave Vibration—a simple, but effective self-healing technique. All and all, the night was an unforgettable exhibition of the power of the brain’s creative spirit and capacity for change.
