Effects of Immediate Aversive Stimulation on Haloperidol-Induced Catalepsy in Rats [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022 In animal models, the administration of the dopaminergic D2 antagonist haloperidol affects the nigrostriatal pathway, inducing catalepsy, a state of immobility similar to Parkinson’s disease (PD) bradykinesia and akinesia.

Opto-Phono-Kinesia (OPK): Designing Motion-Based Interaction for Expert Performers [PDF]
Proceedings of the Twelfth International Conference on Tangible, Embedded, and Embodied Interaction, 2018 Opto-Phono-Kinesia (OPK) is an audio-visual performance piece in which all media elements are controlled by the body movements of a single performer. The title is a play on a possible synesthetic state involving connections between vision, sound and body

Low frequency deep brain stimulation in the inferior colliculus ameliorates haloperidol-induced catalepsy and reduces anxiety in rats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the colliculus inferior (IC) improves haloperidol-induced catalepsy and induces paradoxal kinesia in rats. Since the IC is part of the brain aversive system, DBS of this structure has long been related to aversive behavior
