Somakatoligon - Art and the Mind Physics

Project Description

The theme of this project and exhibition concerns the interaction between art and the physics of conciousness or Mind Physics. The exhibition title that has been selected is:

SOMAKATOLIGON: Degrees of Embodiment - Art and Mind-Physics.

Like our previous exhibition at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston Gallery, LAMPRONEIRO: Art and the Lucid Dream, January 12 - February 25, 1994, the name of our current exhibition is a Greek based neologism: SOMA () = BODY, KATOLIGON () = BY DEGREES, therefore SOMAKATOLIGON = Degrees Of Embodiment.

The relation of Degrees of Embodiment to Mind-Physics and to the exhibition itself is that any specific case of a degree of embodiment of any entity is the natural subject matter for an artwork, and at least anecdotal evidence that could begin to be the basis for a hypothesis or the framing of an experiment. But we will attempt to confine ourselves to highly expressive and exaggerated examples.
