Gateway-älMX
Gateway-äl represents the first phase of a project that will provide a series of exchanges with the Häch Winik community in the Lacandon jungle. By bringing together a large multidisciplinary group of collaborators, the project traces the presence of Mayan shamanic imagery and philosophy in the construction of cyberspace, reworking an existing interpretation of modern culture after the generation of psychedelia that was involved in the development of technology and the Internet.
The aim of the project is to reverse a widespread view of the relationship between the technological development of the psychedelic movement of the 1970s and the cultural heritage of the Mayan worldview. The Lacandon jungle is currently receiving a large number of infrastructure development projects, leading to the Häch Winik community being connected to the Internet.
