The kind of bagel you'd toss to the pigeons.
Summary
PHANTAS.IO is a neuro-optical engine that uses the Web Audio API to generate lossless sine waves for inducing flow states through Cortical Entrainment. Unlike compressed audio platforms, it leverages the Frequency Following Response (FFR) to sync neural rhythms to specific focus states (Gamma, Beta, or Theta), aiming to override distraction and support focus, particularly for those with Aphantasia.
Key quotes
· 4 pulledPHANTAS.IO is a neuro-optical engine designed to induce flow states through Cortical Entrainment.
Unlike Spotify or YouTube videos which use compressed MP3 audio (cutting out essential frequencies), this engine uses the Web Audio API to generate lossless sine waves in real-time.
By utilizing the Frequency Following Response (FFR), the brain naturally aligns its dominant frequency to the external stimuli—syncing your neural rhythms to specific focus states (Gamma, Beta, or Theta).
Override distraction. Mechanical visual entrainment for Focus & Aphantasia.
