The existential exercises included in this project are an ever-evolving series of experiments that explore mindfullness as performance. Developed while in residency at The California Institute of Integral Studies and The University of Chichester, the EPE's allow paricipants the ability to cultivate active consciousness through a series of creative exercises utilizing physicality, endurance, concentration, and repetition. Acting as a discovery center for cognitive development and creative enhancement the EPE's can also be staged as an interactive performance exhibition. Marcum continues to present this workshop across the country through numerous engagements.
