Sound guided tour at the Mouseum of Modern Art of Buenos Aires

 

“The hard, dry, fragile shells of your ego are washing in the Infinite sea of creations. Feel the pulse of the heart of the sun.
And the naked and clean intellect is like an empty transparent ”

Timothy Leary, Manual for the psychedelic experience

I was invited to make a guided tour at the Museum of Modern Art of Buenos Aires. I chose the Argentina Lisérgica exhibition and the visitors were guided through vocal &  kaossilator sounds. Everything was improvised from what the space, the works and the movements of the body proposed, mixing extracts from the Manual for the Psychedelic Experience of Timothy Leary. My goal was to put the visitors in touch with the sensorial and mystical dimension of psychedelic experience through soundscape and Leary´s words.

 

Performance took place on sundays november 10th & 24th, 2013.
