Again for the First Time, 2018

The installation at YBCA, Again for the First Time, houses a web server hosting a single site; againforthefirsttime.online.  The server provides a site for healing and contains energetic residue from every visitor.  Periodically throughout the course of the exhibition, a reiki healer will perform energetic alignment to rid the site of blocked and negative energy.  Once updated, healthy energy will be sent back out onto the network.  Each healing session is recorded in Virtual Reality (VR).  Visitors to the installation can use VR goggles to experience the virtually-embodied healing sessions while they connect to the server.

Again for the First Time is made possible in part by Oculus.
