An episodic newsletter that parses the world of ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response): a term that describes a physical sensation – euphoria or deep calming, sometimes in a tingling in the body.
In recent years—since 2009, specifically—an online audience of millions has grown, dedicated to experiencing the work of ASMRtists who try to trigger these feelings in their viewers.
Each issue of ASMRology presents three works of ASMR. Spanning genres, sub-genres, and genres yet to be identified, each work is loosely contextualised.
