The Dark Matter Cinema Tarot is part of a nomadic project that tries to confront some of these questions through the construc-tion of a new “vernacular technology”, a Tarot made of cinema stills. Travelling around the world, the artists summon “Nocturnal Committees” and invite participants to gather together to pose burning questions to the cards.  Sharing visions and speaking through cinema images, participants are invited to pursue together the alternative narratives and healing possibilities disclosed by the different constellations of figures, forms and forces resulting from each fall of the cards. Through a process of speculative description, collective fabulation and storytelling, each reading comes to form a singular montage of gestures, situations and relations. In recent years DMC Tarot readings have been held in different contexts in India, Armenia, Spain, Germany, Holland, Italy, France, Scotland and the US.
