Here's a video I found on YouTube about ASMR.

There are lots of different sorts of triggers for ASMR. Most ASMR experiences begin either from an external or an internal trigger; Type A episodes are elicited by the experiencer using no external stimuli, whereas Type B are triggered involuntarily by an external trigger via one or more senses. From the ASMR Research & Support website, some common external triggers include:

Exposure to slow, accented, or unique speech patterns
Viewing educational or instructive videos or lectures
Experiencing a high empathetic or sympathetic reaction to an event
Enjoying a piece of art or music
Watching another person complete a task, often in a diligent, attentive manner -- examples would be filling out a form, writing a check, going through a purse or bag, inspecting an item closely, etc.
Close, personal attention from another person
Haircuts, or other touch from another on head or back.

As the group begins to gain its footing a list of different external ASMR triggers will become available here on the group's homepage and in a journal.
