Another unfathomable evening thanks to the Parnassus Literary Society, as they awarded me their Medal of Freedom tonight during their symposium focused on The Future of The World: Being a Utopia or Dystopia?

This is the oldest literary society in Greece dating back to 1865.

I’m waiting for the reveal that it’s all a big mistake… 😵‍💫

Seriously. Thank you 🙏🙏

The end of an amazing feat. So intense. So ambitious. Completely impossible. And yet, as always the magic part comes in and lifts us to some other better place.

Dreams shape who we are. But what happens when they are censored?

Welcome to a world stripped of memory and ruled by constant surveillance. In this Restarted civilization, brain‑computer technologies shape truth—and dreams are the last remnants of the past. They become a dangerous currency for those who struggle to survive.

Arte Makar Productions, led by Armenian director Arthur Makaryan, presents this visually striking, interdisciplinary new work—a timely exploration of how love, language, and the body are reshaped in a world without privacy.

🗓️ May 1 – 17, 2026
📍 Ellen Stewart Theatre @ La MaMa, 66 E 4th Street
🎟️ Tickets: $40 Adults | $35 Students/Seniors | $10 La MaMa Members
