For this week’s Aa Friendbook, we’re diving into the world of Bruno Sitton, a visionary experience designer and musician who crafts immersive spaces that bridge the gaps between self, others, and the environment.
‘At the heart of everything I create is a deep sense of purpose. I don’t just design; I challenge the status quo to spark transformation—both in the blueprints of my work and with the people I create with. For those seeking more than the obvious, Let’s Be Together. Here, we’re not just building concepts; we’re establishing true connection.’
Bruno’s journey began with a life-changing encounter with a monk, igniting a lifelong dedication to understanding human potential. From studying ancient traditions and meditation practices to exploring biohacking and behavioral patterns, Bruno’s work is about creating meaningful connections through every experience. His expertise extends across fashion, music, art, and entertainment, blending his insights into well-being and community.
This philosophy comes to life in Ripples, a music-led experience designed to foster self-discovery, togetherness, and joy. Curating diverse musicians with unique sounds, Ripples invites participants to step into another world, blurring the lines between observer and performer. It’s a transformative journey where you become part of the music, co-creating a moment that binds you to the artists in a shared flow.
Catch Bruno for his Ripples performance at Super-Sonic Jazz Festival on Sunday the 17th of November at Paradiso — a powerful exploration of connection that’s not to be missed.
