Altered level of consciousness is sometimes described as altered sensorium. Prochaska described the "sensorium commune" as the core mechanism of the reflex. Whether positive or negative vibrations ensued in the spectator's sensorium made little difference to Nikolais. Concerning the immature, the nymphs resemble adults but never have the secondary sensorium. She participated in the German ZKM Art Center's "New Sensorium" exhibition.
