BrainWave: Binaural Beats Audio Generator is a self-hostable web application for experimenting with binaural beats. It centers on sound, code, and the use of technology to augment and explore human capacities rather than replace them.
The project explains binaural beats as the phantom frequency perceived when two slightly different tones are played separately to each ear, typically through headphones. BrainWave places that phenomenon at its core and describes it as a sonic environment that can support attention, reflection, and the creation of altered mental states on demand. The page also links binaural beats with brainwave bands commonly associated with deep meditative states, relaxation, focus, and creativity, naming delta, theta, alpha, beta, and gamma.
Its intended audience includes researchers, artists, meditators, and technologists, along with people interested in audio experimentation, coding, hardware tinkering, and critical technology studies. The text frames the tool as part of a longer creative practice by Jacques Laroche, whose work spans those areas. It also situates the project alongside broader practices such as meditation, breathwork, contemplative listening, and biohacking, as examples of human augmentation from within.
BrainWave is delivered as a self-hostable web application and the page provides links to a GitHub repository and a live demo. No pricing or license terms are stated on the page.
