Mammalian Diving Reflex

Ideal Entertainment for the End of the World

Mammalian Diving Reflex is firmly constituted to alter the viewer's consciousness, creating work that is at once furious, riotous and rigorous. MDR smashes ideas together at high speeds to see what pops out, inadvertently producing ideal entertainment for the end of the world.

MDR's "social acupuncture" project Haircuts by Children has been declared the best of Performa 07 by ARTINFO and is rapidly becoming Canada's most successful performance art export. Following the incredible success in Toronto in the spring 2006, Los Angeles in the fall of 2006, Birmingham, UK in spring 2007 and Portland, Oregon and Dublin in Fall of 2007, New York is now falling in love with childish haircuts.
