WEBSITE | INSTAGRAM | FACEBOOK Theme of the Month: Self & Godself Live Music GOLDCAP Goldcap (aka Berge Sahakian) has roots in music based in an eclectic pool of genres since his earliest ages. Having grown up listening to all different kinds of music like psychedelic rock, orchestra, armenian, arabic, traditional indian, west-african, rap, instrumental, and many others, he eventually found inspiration and a deep appreciation for traditional & folk music from around the world. Eventually he was introduced to electronic music in 2008 and decided to explore the possibilities of fusing traditional sounds with modern beats. Having picked up instruments like the electric/acoustic guitar, bass guitar, classical piano, drums and various different percussion instruments; Goldcap's vision is to deliver an organic sound throughout his sets and productions in hopes of connecting people to the cultures and knowledge of music past. Also being a fan of poetry, films, ambient sounds, traditional instruments, and the spoken word, you will often hear him incorporating an eclectic array of samples in his sets.

Event Information
Vision Train Psyght See-ing with Amanda Sage & Joe Bob Merritt Saturday November 1, 2025 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM Amanda Sage, Mixtek Mystics 2024 ABOUT THE PROGRAM Join us under the November Full Moon for a three-hour creative ceremony of perception and remembrance — a participatory exploration into the nature of psyght, the inner act of seeing that bridges sound, image, and meaning. Guided by visionary artist Amanda Sage and architect-philosopher Joe Bob Merritt, this immersive session blends drawing, dialogue, and meditative sound to activate deeper layers of awareness. Participants will map the realms of perception — Somatic, Visual, and Auditory — and journey through the spaces of experience (Touch, Sight, Sound / Feel, Image, Talk) to rediscover how attention becomes creation. Through guided drawing, reflective writing, and collective rhythm, we will practice “taking back the track” — reclaiming the movement of mind as a conscious act of creation. This is both a Vision Train workshop and a ritual of remembering — where art becomes a mirror for the psyche in motion. Joe Bob Merrit - Mixtek Mysitcs 2024 WHAT TO EXPECT Guided exercises in sound, drawing, and reflection A poetic and philosophical journey through psyght — the technology of awareness Explorations in both active and receptive creative states Connection with the Vision Train’s global community of artists No prior experience required.

Passionate about artistic social experiments, her endeavors are focused towards building, facilitating and participating in platforms designed to experiment and explore creative solutionary activism within community. amandasage.com | visiontrain.org IG: @amandasageart | FB: @amandasageart Joe Bob is interested in the intersection of the visionary arts, mindfulness, and the creative process. He believes that art making provides one with innumerable opportunities to develop sensory clarity, strengthen concentration skills, and cultivate powers of equanimity. He believes that the efforts that we as artists make in the cultivation of these skills contribute to the possibility of having direct experiences of freedom from mechanical conditioning and habitual re-actions, thus increasing the probability of intelligent, response-able, and creative activity in the midst of everyday life situations. josephrobertmerritt.com | southmaingunnison.com IG: @josephrobertmerritt TUITION: $55 Earlybird (first 5 sign ups) $65 General Admission Your ticket includes General Admission to the Full Moon Gathering, with the option to upgrade for Priority Ceremony Seating.
