Aura of Habitable Space

Abstract

In the initial understanding, the term "aura" is used to denote a halo, a halo around the object of study, both in the orthodox sense (Kirlian effect; radioactive glow) and metaphorically. The term has become in demand in the analysis of psychophysical and neurophysiological processes of brain activity in the study of synesthesia — an associative connection between thought forms that generate a phantom of mental phenomena with amazing, paradoxical, aesthetic qualities.

The concept of "aura" has become a happy find and a terminological basis for neuropsychologists studying orbits and impulses of creative thinking, associative chains of creative operations, emotional effects arising from insight as an electric shock to get out of the dead-end state of professional thinking of an artist; composer, architect, engineer.
