A More Than Human Tongue explores the fusion of ancestral practices and modern tech with a pair of innovative experiences. One Who Looks at the Cup, by Mashinka Firunts Hakopian with Atlas Acopian, and Lara Sarkissian, uncovers the secrets of tasseography (the fortune-telling method of reading coffee grounds) reimagined through AI.
Voice in My Head, created by Lauren Lee McCarthy and Kyle McDonald, delves into the mind’s inner workings, in which guests hear voices in their heads through earbuds – but with an AI twist.
This event is Choose What You Pay. Suggestion begin with $15 per reservation, pay more or less, with rates accepted as low as $5 per reservation.
A More Than Human Tongue and Voice in My Head runs August 29, 2024 through November 3, 2024 at the Jerry Moss Plaza at The Music Center , 4:00–8:00 p.m. on Thursdays and Fridays, and 1:00–8:00 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.

Color mapped the very order of the cosmos, of time and space. The exhibition explores the science, art, and cosmology of color in Mesoamerica. See website for ticket prices and registration.
