The Labyrinth, Chora and Matrixial Copoiesis. January 22, 2011. Gestare Art Collective presenting at the International Conference on Narrative, Arts-based, and "Post" Approaches to Social Research (NAPAR), Sponsored by the Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College, Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona, USA.

Our presentation included a visual sound meditation of our collective and individual artworkings followed by the participants walking and sounding within a Cretan 3 circuit labyrinth taped to the floor. In this way all were able to enter the matrixial sphere of the labyrinth to experience first hand co-resonating within this temporal womb space. Attached is a PDF of the introductory text we read and a MP3 sound meditation  below.
