20.00 The Mind, performance by Egill Sæbjörnsson (IS) and Marcia Moraes (BR) The mind can be anything. It can be a wind in the air. It can be words appearing in the room with a video projection, it can be shown in a conversation. It can be talked about in a scientific way. In the play we can jump from 1st to 3rd to 2nd person and so forth. We blend things from Theater and visual arts and music and ideas that we have heard or read in books etc. http://www.egills.de/ Reykjavik Art Museum, Hafnarhus, Tryggvagata 17, 101 Reykjavík
