The Archives of the Deep Now have been recreated by Submersive from instructions left behind by The Institute of Visionary History before they mysteriously vanished in 1997. Each box from The Archives contains an experiment designed to conjure visions of the past in order to ask a specific question. Episodes Two through Five were found clustered in a corner of the basement archive. Each episode runs for a single week. While the episodes do build and “speak” to each other and each one adds new information about The Institute, each one also stands alone as its own strange and mysterious experiment.
October 11th-14th — Episode Two: Project P.S.
Subjects needed. Join in on procedures and extractions of metaphysical kurayami with a biomechatronic sculptor to examine the hypothesis that one can obtain enlightenment.
October 18th-21st — Episode Three: Altar Ego
Encounter a unique house party to learn more about your “model citizen” Vietnamese-American neighbor, and explore the boundaries between home and not home.
November 1st-4th — Episode Four: Waters of Oblivion
Explore layers of existence throughout time with a being at the beginning as we seek to discover how can one forge a new identity.
November 29th-Dec 2nd — Episode Five: She Who Sees and Hears the Cries of the World
This experiment was originally conducted in 1836, but was so disastrous the results were suppressed for almost 200 years…until an anonymous informant gave us new information in an effort to answer the question: “How can one escape a curse?”
There will also be an Episode Six that runs all day November 10th and 17th. Entitled A Horse by the Tail in the Nighttime, and featuring Francisco Benavides and Lisi Stoessel from H.T. Darling’s Incredible Musaeum, it will be a special durational performance with tickets on sale in October.
