… Install the app on your smartphone or tablet.
Activate the app choose one of the options on the menu, point your phone camera on the CD or LP cover, back cover or gatefold (or poster with the CD).
Many of the parts will come to life. IF you have the smartphone cardboard, you need to choose the VR mode from the menu.
The 7 principles of the Kybalion are illustrated on the front cover at the top and each one of these opens up a unique short experience.
The Gatefold sleeve begins to come to life and each of the 8 tablets representing the 8 songs on album, give an individual experience.
On the back cover, the images come to life and you can visit the web sites for the Band, Record Label and Cyber Rabbit.

Øresund Space Collective is one of the pioneers of Psychedelic Space Rock genre. This album is devoted to the mysteries and principles of the universe that explored
in the hermetic teachings of ancient Egypt and Greece, in other words, Kybalion. ØSC’s Kybalion celebrates these mysteries by dedicating the album to cosmic heroes of
our times, Stephen Hawking and Owsley Stanley.
Dr Space: "Owsley Stanley was the King of LSD, producing the highest quality, reliable trips and amazing expansion of the mind using chemicals.
Steven Hawking used another path, where he used his immense brain power to look beyond what exists in the physical world and to try to explain how the universe works,
where the human race is headed and more futuristic stuff."
This ØSC album is a collaboration with 'Cyber Rabbit', using the great potential of Mixed Reality technologies, that allows one to get inside the ‘Kybalion’ album in a totally
new and exciting way. An approach, which melds the mind, eyes and music to create a new adventure.
The artwork itself will be interactive through the use of augmented, mixed and virtual reality technologies. This album context engineers the traditional way of interacting
with the album. The audience is invited to go discover a space journey inside the artwork. You will be able to turn your mobile device into a space ship by using it with a
virtual reality cardboard!
The 6 different highly detailed paintings on the cover & poster / booklet combines the esoteric symbolism with cosmic imagery, each one contains different portals into the world
of Kybalion. From choosing the songs through interactive Emerald Tablets of Thoth that becomes portals into virtual worlds, to exploring the 7 Cosmic Laws by augmenting
these reality, this is an artefact every 21st century Psychedelic Space Alchemist must have in their magical laboratory.
