INVITATION — ANXIETY AS A GIFT ( General rehearsal + Premiere + Last Night)

You’re warmly invited to “Anxiety as a Gift” a sci-fi live show with diverse art forms and a rare chance to step inside the artists’ minds.

Across the evening, you won’t only witness performances you’ll also see how the artists’ brains function in real time. Through EEG brainwave readings, inner intensity becomes visible as live moving images: anxiety, focus, courage, and creative power translated into art.

Created in collaboration with UMC Amsterdam and the University of Twente, this program is part of The Locus of Fear 7: a long-term artistic research asking a simple, radical question:

Can we prove that even with FEAR, we remain creative and still reach for LOVE?
