About

Presented as part of the “Entanglements: Chiharu Shiota” series, a film series presented in collaboration with the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, alongside the with the exhibition Chiharu Shiota: The Soul Trembles.

Through the lens of legendary filmmaker Werner Herzog, Theater of Thought takes audiences on a provocative journey into the study of the mind and consciousness, daring us to question whether we truly have autonomy over our thoughts, or if our brains will inevitably become infused with mind-controlling technology in the not-so-distant future.

Gathering insight and predictions from some of the world’s most influential scientists and innovators, Theater of Thought is an exploration of the ethical and existential effects of neurotechnology in our rapidly advancing world.
