QUALIA

An Immersive Sound & Visual Film Experience through The 5 Elements

June 22nd, 2025 / Shows 6:00 PM & 7:30 PM

at FISKE PLANETARIUM, Boulder, CO

Dear Friends,

You are invited at the Fiske Planetarium to experience QUALIA – a full-dome film experience that merges the transformative power of sound, 360º visuals, ancient wisdom, and technology to awaken your senses, deepen your connection with nature, and inspire inner transformation.

QUALIA is not just a show. It’s a journey through the 5 Elements – Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Space – woven through ceremonial music, nature-inspired imagery, CGI, and awe-inducing visuals that go far beyond what the naked eye can see.

The music is an offering of sound as medicine, played with rare ceremonial instruments from sacred traditions around the world. The encompassing visuals give a deeper layer of introspection, offering both the 'over-view effect' of witnessing our planet from above, and the 'inner-view effect' of expending your consciousness.

Get a few tickets and invite your friends for a treat!

Enjoy the magic...

The CoA Team

ABOUT QUALIA

A full-dome film experience designed for planetariums, QUALIA takes you on a journey through the 5 Elements – Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Space – as a pathway into grounding, connecting, envisioning, harmonizing, and integrating. You are the creator of your own experience, conceiving realities only you can perceive.

QUALIA is an immersive sound and visual journey into the magic of life. It invites you to transcend space and time, dissolve boundaries, and reconnect with the deeper layers of your being. Through music and imagery, QUALIA creates a space where you become the creator of your own experience, perceiving a reality that is uniquely yours.

The word qualia refers to the unique, 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.

The music is an offering of sound as medicine, created to connect deeply with ourselves, the natural world, and the larger mystery of life. Composed and performed by sound alchemist Laura Inserra, featuring ceremonial instruments that have been used for centuries in sacred traditions around the world.

The visuals, drawn from real-world imagery and scientific data, offer a reverent homage to the beauty and authenticity of what is real in a time when so much around us is simulated.

QUALIA invites you to step beyond the ordinary and into a place of awe and wonder. It is up to you to experience this planetarium show as a transformative journey, an immersion into beauty, a booster for creativity, a physical, mental, and emotional release, or a joyful and meaningful time to share with your friends and beloved ones.

This is your QUALIA. Let your journey begin...

ABOUT CHAMBERS OF AWE (Acoustic Waves Emergence)

Founded by Laura Inserra, Chambers of AWE is a mission-driven production company rooted in 30 years of experience in immersive productions, global cross-cultural studies, and healing practices.

Our passion is to help overcome the growing imbalance between humans and nature, our loss of community, and detachment from ancient wisdom.

We facilitate immersive and transformative experiences designed to enhance profound shifts of consciousness, deepen our relationship with nature, and facilitate inner transformation and healing.

Our productions feature musical journeys crafted with ceremonial instruments and field recordings, enhanced with 360º visuals and CGI content anchored in ancient cross-cultural wisdom and human-made art.

We use cutting-edge technology to augment some of the natural sound sources, creating immersive environments with a vast spectrum of frequencies, perceptible through our bones and other meta-sensory receptors. In these settings music becomes experiential.

The immersive 360º visuals give a deeper layer of introspection, providing a lens that our naked eyes alone cannot reveal. This allows us to look at the vastness of reality with new eyes, seeing ordinary life in extraordinary ways.
