ALL PERFORMANCEPERFORMANCE / MAD HOUSE HELSINKI & REALITY RESEARCH CENTER

Anachronism, Schizophrenia, and the Speed of Light and Sound.

Vishnu Vardhani Rajan performing Anachronism.

Anachronism, Schizophrenia, and the Speed of Light and Sound reflects the interplay of divergent experiences, temporal disjunctions, and the nuanced exploration of fear, identity, and neurodiversity in a performative context, set in real and speculative spaces such as outer-space and in mines; by drawing on schizophrenia as a methodology.

The work is to destigmatize, working through shame, by looking at the realities, lived experiences, history and politics of people who variously identify as mad, voice hearers, neurodiverse and/or disabled that are directly linked to us as artists. Made for every socially responsible individual.

The work will have a composition of video, poetry, comedy, skit-theatrics, mythological references, Aetiological myths and live performances.

Anachronism, Schizophrenia, and the Speed of Light and Sound is a co-production between Reality Research Center and Mad House Helsinki.
