Where Meditation meets Science & Technology

All Here’s mission is to modernize and spread meditation across society by bridging research, design, and expertise in contemplative practices to empower inner-existence and fulfillment.

How it all began

Home Within Meditation Platform

In 2022, EPFL Prof Olaf Blanke & All Here Founder Erkin Bek joined forces to develop the “Home Within” Meditation Platform powered by Mixed Reality Technology — pledging to study its impact on the brain using advanced tools of neuroscience and neurotechnology.

Research

3-year collaborative research

All Here × EPFL

This pledge was transformed into a three-year collaborative research study by All Here and the Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience of EPFL.

“Meditation in the Third-Person Perspective Modulates Minimal Self and Heartbeat-Evoked Potentials.”

Experienced meditators often describe the feeling: the “I” becomes lighter, less anchored to thoughts or the body. Measuring this scientifically is not straightforward — but we set out to do it.

Using Virtual Reality (VR), participants meditated from two perspectives:

First-person perspective (1PP)

Seeing through one’s own eyes.

Third-person perspective (3PP)

Observing oneself from the outside.

The effects were immediate.

Meditation in the third-person perspective was associated with

  • Stronger sensations of detachment and disconnection.
  • Softer perceptions of body boundaries.
  • Reduced self-identification with the body.
  • A more negative amplitude in heartbeat-evoked potential, associated with activation of the posterior cingulate cortex and medial prefrontal cortex.

These findings provide data linking meditation to the neuroscience of self and hint at how VR could potentially provide access to inward-focused meditative states, enabling novice and intermediate practitioners to engage fully with their own sense of being.

Zenbu Koko All Here

Zenbu Koko ("All Here" in Japanese) is a mixed-reality meditation platform that serves as a threshold between the real world and the participant's inner atmosphere.

Philosophy

Inclusion rather
than division.

Extended Reality  ·  非物質化

In collaboration with All Here, Kengo Kuma extends his philosophy to the virtual realm — designing an XR meditation installation that enhances attention and Stability of the Mind.

Inside the dome, immersive landscapes — forests, skies and outer cosmic space — dissolve the boundary between self and environment. A non-materialised atmosphere, where matter, light and silence converge.

Experience

Installation

A Threshold Between Worlds

The architecture dissolves into atmosphere — wood, light and immersion converge to invite the practitioner inward, where the experience becomes more than the sum of its parts.

Zenbu Koko  —  Visual Concept

Zenbu Koko merges neuroscience, technology, design and contemplative practice — inspired by geodesic forms and Kuma's ethos of contrast, immersion and interconnectedness.
