OBSCURUM PER OBSCURIUS


Obscurum per Obscurius is a performance that unfolds in blackout conditions. Immersed in complete darkness the audience faces an impenetrable void broken only by events that test the boundaries of visual perception.

A Machine 5 production
Created by Greg Kowalski
Lighting by Greg Kowalski
Quadraphonic Sound Design by Dave Seidel
Voice by Dei Xhrist
Movement: Paul Kafka-Gibbons

"One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making darkness conscious.”
C.G. Jung
The Philosophical Tree
Collected Works 13: Alchemical Studies

Obscurum per Obscurius - "(explaining) the obscure by means of the more obscure" - is the expression alchemists used to describe their work. 

For this piece light is blocked in the venue so as to achieve complete blackout conditions. Please be aware of this as there will be prolonged periods in total darkness.
