(from the perspective of a friend): "Chris is a soundworker, consciousness researcher, and author; in other words - he is a full-time Explorer, like Bob Monroe and similar pioneers. He works with gongs, singing bowls, noise patterns, natural sounds processed by a computer, but is also an overtone singer. He knows how to design a good and effective soundspace. One of his latest developments is something called 'Conscious Sound'. If you believe, that you've heard everything in the soundwork area - you should try such soundscapes. Carefully designed, and very powerful, they are effective in various consciousness applications. Contemplation and deep meditation, relax and sleep, massage (some albums provide a good sound massage for the body, through conventional speakers) and energy work, emotional work with encoded programs and archetypes, but also deep out-of-body journeys, lucid dreaming and guided imagery. The major difference is in the span and quality of the experiences. For example if something like a 'cosmic journeys' or 'past life meetings' was unfamiliar to you, you should begin to get used to such ones. He says, that - 'today, it is somehow difficult to promote a new, good product; every seller will claim, that his or her is the best one. But the simple fact is - only a product that works efficiently - is efficient. Try it, and make your own judgement or opinion, based upon your experiences. And don't worry - although you have no limitations other than you want to perceive - only you can change you, and no one else. These are only a tools for you, to make such changes easier. Have fun, and Happy Journeys'".
