Quantum Conversation
This hybrid Installation/live performance is about unearthing embodied memories of nature in ourselves through following traces gathered and left by the body. Traces of our many stories – from the billion-years-old history of the universe, through the collective evolution of the living, to our individual journey – imprinted in us. The immersive quality of the installation aims to create a feeling of being part of something larger than us, as if vibrating in synch with everything around – having a quantum conversation with all.
Bring a stone to contribute to the installation.

Embodied Threads
The exploration of the relations between, the evolving and ongoing process of how we communicate with each other and to nature. Just as the digital “ecosystem” links everything with everything, so does mycelium of the forest floor breaking down dead, organic matter and releasing nutrients so everything is reborn. To enhance your experience, bring headphones for sound.
