Vital
Psigns:
The
Center for Tactical Magic's Vital Psigns is a social
experiment that seeks to address individual mind power
and the potential for human/plant communication. The Vital
Psigns installation includes three plants (positive, negative,
and control) receiving equal soil, water, and light. Visitors
are invited to take a few moments to relax in the presence
of the plants and attempt to affect their growth using
their mental energies. The cumulative effect on the plants
over the course of the experiment is assessed at the close
of the exhibition. Additionally, the CTM presents a performance
lecture exploring the magic and mystery of human/plant
communication. Ranging from Moses' consultation with a
burning bush to the Pentagon's recent development of "sentinel
plants," the CTM provides a brief history of plants
as purveyors of knowledge. Audience members also participate
in a live demonstration of extra-sensory perception mediated
through the cooperation of living plants. For more info:
