Take a bite: This week we discuss the Internet phenomenon Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) with Melinda Lauw, a Singaporean artist, curator and performance creator based in San Francisco who also runs a live ASMR theatrical experience. We start the podcast with a discussion on what stimulates our hosts. The hosts also try ASMR for the first time with guidance from Melinda Lauw. Finally, we close the show by answering questions from Pillow Tok—a conversational card game.

Feature segment with a new guest each podcast.

For this episode, we invited Melinda Lauw, a Singaporean artist, curator and performance creator based in San Francisco.

Melinda is the co-creator of Whisperlodge, an immersive spa for the senses. Combining her interests in immersive theatre and ASMR, Whisperlodge is based on the idea of providing ASMR in a live, one-to-one environment, translating the work of ASMRtists on Youtube, into a tangible, physical performance. Melinda and Whisperlodge was featured in Episode 1 of the Netflix Series—Follow This.
