A guide from the Museum of Poetic Thought takes us on a journey through the mind of Alexandre O’Neill. In this guided tour through the objects of this unusual “head-museum”, we will closely explore the poet’s way of being and writing. How does the Poem-Making Machine work? What is the purpose of the Giant Dictionary? And why is there a broken heart on one of the shelves?
All these questions are answered by Ana, a young woman who suffers from the same “word disease” that O’Neill did. And she might be getting infected with other quirks of the poet.
This event is part of the O’Neill Cycle.
