About the piece

An hybrid of lights, sounds and colors (a synesthetic ritual). The sound artist Nicolás Melmann guides the ritual with his instruments and his elements of power, while in a state of trance the plastic artist Juan Pablo Alfonzo lets himself be taken to altered states of consciousness. The scene is flooded with smoke, paint and sound textures, which trigger various inexpressible sensations in the public. Tragedy and serenity this performance is a magical act in the era of post-truth ...

Inspired by the ancient Maya Sincronario the performance "Espejo Resonante Blanco" (White Resonant Mirror) proposes a reflection around the imposition of a way of conceiving, perceiving and experiencing time, the colonization of bodies and minds through a social device that mechanizes us, and makes us productive machines, uniforms the conception of a single time, killing the biological clock itself of each being. Through movements, sounds and colors it expresses the internal conflicts, the oppression and manipulation of the peoples of Latin America originally called "abya yala" in an internal struggle for the decolonization of time.

White Resonant Mirror (Uuk Etznab in ancient Mayan name) comes from the Mayan synchronous, biodynamic and biorhythmic that synchronizes with galactic time, measures time organically and regularized by the sun, the moon and the solar system, harmonizes us with nature on the contrary of the Gregorian calendar created by Pope Gregory XIII that conceives the time in a linear and mechanical way, it turns us into machines to produce, in the Gregorian calendar the time is money, when in the Mayan synchronization the time is art, it synchronizes you with the galaxy, it produces an internal balance, physical and spiritual mental health.

The word "Calendar" is a derivative of the word "calenda" which is "the book of debts", indicates when the King collected his taxes, when you participate of this calender you instantly acquires a debt for the alone fact of being alive, in the Gregorian calendar the time produces the mechanization of the life, it turns us into productive clocks for the system, giving us schedules to eat, to wake up, to live.

Just two more cards for the complete set of major arcana! Once I’ve finished, I’ll probably take them into something like Affinity, clean them up, and color them. I have some ideas for the minor arcana, as well.

Besides Glossaryck, I think Baby is perhaps the most impartial character in the SVTFOE universe. She’s also one of the most intimidating.  Previously: 0 - The Fool (Star Butterfly) I - The Magician (Marco Diaz) II - The High Priestess (Hekapoo) III - The Empress (Queen Moon Butterfly) IV - The Emperor (King River Butterfly) V - The Hierophant (Lekmet) VI - The Lovers (Marco, Jackie, Star) VII - The Chariot (Pony Head, Alfonzo, and Ferguson) IX - The Hermit (Glossaryck) X - Wheel of Fortune (Marco and Tom) XII - The Hanged Man (Ludo) XIII - Death (Janna) XIV - Temperance (Buff Frog and his babies) XV - The Devil (Toffee) XVI - The Tower (Ms. Heinous) XVII - The Star (Starfan13) XIX - The Sun (Jackie) XX - Judgment (Rhombulus)

I must admit, I am enjoying Buff Frog’s arc. I hope we get more good stuff with him in Season 3.

I almost didn’t do an update today. I’m not in the best place. But I think that’s why it was important to draw something for today’s card, The Star. I like Starfan13′s exuberance. I like even more the fact that Star embraces Starfan13′s weirdness and rolls with it, balancing it out. At her most positive, Starfan13 embodies a hope, a faith, and a trust in her adoration of Star. Who knows who she was before Star’s visit to Earth. She’s letting Star’s presence change her, though, and Star’s acceptance has given her a circle of friends she likely did not have before.  Our friend groups can influence and change us. Friendships require hope, faith, and trust to move forward. They require a little bit of naivete, and they require a little bit of ourselves. When the give and take is positive, it is inspiring and renewing.  Anyhow, it seemed like the kind of card I needed to draw today.   Previously: 0 - The Fool (Star Butterfly) II - The High Priestess (Hekapoo) III - The Empress (Queen Moon Butterfly) IV - The Emperor (King River Butterfly) VI - The Lovers (Marco, Jackie, Star) VII - The Chariot (Pony Head, Alfonzo, and Ferguson) IX - The Hermit (Glossaryck) XII - The Hanged Man (Ludo) XIII - Death (Janna) XVI - The Tower (Ms. Heinous)
