Self-Liberating Game, or Alchemy of Artistic Mastery.

 

This highly controversial and provocative book presents an extremely condensed excursion into several topics of individual mythotechnology by Vadim Demchog, an overview of his Imaginarium of the Game. The Self-Liberating Game is both a theory and practice of drama and... thinking at the intersection of progressive theatrical experiments of the 20th century and transpersonal psychology, drawing on the experience and works of the main innovators in theater from Antonin Artaud to Stanislav Grof. Following J. Huizinga with his definition of the playful aspect of culture, V. Demchog also defines the Game as a fundamental concept that takes on an incredibly profound and astonishing interpretation in his theory. Vadim Demchog is a Russian actor of theater, film, and voice acting, best known to the general public for his participation in such projects as "Frankie Show", "Mr Freeman", and "Interns". He is the founder of the "School of Game", a unique cycle of training sessions that allow for a new experience of joy, immediacy, and inspiration.
