Program Information:
[circum]-perceptio was conceived based on the idea of a complete, cross-, inter- and multi-dimensional perspective of a single object cell suspended in an undisturbed space-time continuum. Beneath the complexity of the philosophical, physical and psychological arguments that arise from the above statement, the aim of [circum]-perceptio is simply for the audience to form their own perception of the original single object cell – a personal path to self-discovery.
