The Brain Cell Bell

Introducing the world’s first musical instrument designed to sit inside of

First created in 2017, the Brain Cell Bell is an invention of sorts that combines the steel tongue drum with a simple bell design that provides an immersive experience that brings people together through play, relaxation, and creative expression.

The notes of the instrument are in the same scale and arranged to guide anyone to drop into a flow state regardless of musical training.

This piece has been well received at a variety of events ranging from festivals to block parties because it offers attendees a highly accessible form of play that facilitates social connection and de-escalates anxiety.

While some activations include Jameson offering direct sound baths and light guidance to participants, the real magic of this piece rests in the spontaneous play that arises for those who wander past this peculiar public musical instrument and add their expression to the environment.
