Enchanted by Grof

Kazakhstani artist and musician Katya Nikonorova presents her solo live performance that is an instant response to the Stanislav Grof “Expanding and Reenchanting the Psyche” conference, recently held by California Institute of Integral Studies.
“After the event I found my notebook full of new doodles and sketches that I obviously made during the conference. This concert is an intuitive translation of these graphic scores into music. basically, for me this concert is multiple meaning convertation: from Grof’s phylosophy to my comprehension, then to graphic notes and then into music.” – Katya Nikonorova
