In composer Murray Hidary’s performance art work MindTravel, inner journeys take form through music, inviting listeners to make their own discoveries. In this immersive experience tailored specifically for the Rubin Museum, you will roam the Museum in a curated arc while a headset provides you with an all-enveloping music meditation as a soundtrack to your journey.
Murray Hidary knew he wanted to become composer by the time he was in high school. He also began a deep inner journey of discovery as a teenager that led him to study Eastern philosophy, Zen Buddhism, and other wisdom traditions. MindTravel is a fusion of these strands into a personal reflective practice at the piano.
The experience is preceded by a conversation with Yale University neuroscientist Dr. Molly Crockett about the neuropsychology of connection, and why music is such a powerful vehicle for communal experience.
