Haunted by their transgressive actions and excommunicated by their friends, Blair tries to heal their mind and reinvent their creative practice through an extreme act of artistic self-abnegation.

A unique, completely live mixed-reality performance, 366 Days plunges us into a hallucinatory virtual world where art and life are indistinguishable. Hurt loved ones have their say, dead cats come back to life, and the paralyzing aftereffects of trauma are brought to surreal digital light.

”Here’s a strange, unsettling thought: We are all hybrid creatures. That’s how we have to live now, forever straddling the live and the digital, not fully existing in one world or another. Are we then our own artistic creations, our own live-streamed works of art? Discuss. There’s a play about that — by David Gagnon Walker, directed by Geoffrey Simon Brown — opening online this week. Or, wait, is it a play?”
