Synopsis

Synopsis [EN]:
According to scientists, we have been traveling for 13.8 billion years as atoms and vibrations since the formation of the universe. To Eastern Philosophers, we have been traveling from one life to another. At a different spacio-temporal scale, we are traveling as we meditate, read, eat, listen to music or even enjoy a sip of coffee ... From the Director of award-winning "I C LAND", "I C SKIES" and "Missed Connections", and with the invaluable contribution of several artists, scientists, humanists and spiritual leaders, the "Art and Science of Traveling" opens a door to a plethora of traveling techniques and perspectives, with the body, the mind and the spirit. From land, sea, and sky to cosmic travels, this episodic docu-fiction feature-film questions identity and the meaning of life in a vision quest of ten oneiric chapters.

Synopsis [FR]:
Selon les scientifiques, nous voyageons depuis 13,8 milliards d'années sous forme d'atomes et de vibrations depuis la formation de l'univers. Selon les philosophes orientaux, nous voyageons d'une vie à l'autre. A une échelle spatio-temporelle différente, nous voyageons en méditant, en lisant, en mangeant, en écoutant de la musique ou même en profitant d'une gorgée de café ... Du directeur d’ "I C LAND", "I C SKIES" et " Missed Connections", et avec la contribution inestimable de plusieurs artistes, scientifiques, humanistes et chefs spirituels, le « Art et la science de voyager » ouvre une porte à une pléthore de techniques de voyages corporels, mentales et spirituels. Pendant ces voyages terrestres, océaniques et cosmiques, ce docu-fiction explore l'identité, les raisons d'être et de voyager dans une quête de vision épisodique de dix chapitres oniriques.
