Four Altered States travelers embark on an inner journey, where their agents-advanced forms of their own consciousness-await them, along with challenges they must face to consolidate their presence in this new stage of human evolution. Uncanniks is committed to providing a safe and transformative experience for all attendees. As part of our immersive live performance, certain food items may be used by actors during the show. These items are handled exclusively by performers and are not intended for audience consumption.
// FON_OS is a collaborative audiovisual performance and research project by musician and composer Fon Román and visual designer and researcher Oswaldo García (Universidade de Vigo). Together they explore how heritage spaces can be reimagined as living instruments through the fusion of real-time sound improvisation and architectural digital twins. At the core of the project lies a shared question: how can contemporary creative practices reactivate heritage spaces, allowing us to experience them not as silent monuments but as resonant organisms?

We're seated either on the grass on portable pads with backs or in folding chairs on an elevated platform.
