October 9, 2021 – Mindahi Bastida and Geraldine Patrick share the cosmovision of Mesoamerican cultures, where multiple simultaneous worlds are understood to exist. They draw from different representations of such worlds and also share personal experiences where they have had a glimpse into such alternate dimensions.
