Location
Aldebaran is a red giant star located in the constellation Taurus, astronomically identified as Alpha Tauri. It is approximately 65 light-years from Earth and is one of the brightest stars visible to the naked eye in the night sky of the northern hemisphere.
From a scientific point of view, Aldebaran is an evolved star that has exhausted the hydrogen in its core and is in an advanced stage of its life cycle. It is not part of a confirmed multiple star system, nor has the existence of planets orbiting it been verified.
Astronomically, Aldebaran is neither a planet nor a physical destination, but rather an individual star whose interest lies in its astrophysical study and its value as an observational reference within the constellation of Taurus.

WHO IS MARIA ORSIC?
MEDIUM
María Orsic was a medium who belonged to the spiritualist circles of early 20th-century Germany. There, beliefs in non-human intelligences coexisted with the search for transcendental knowledge beyond the limits of conventional science.During altered states of consciousness, she channelled information from other planets, such as diagrams and energy principles. The information she was able to obtain was so valuable that she had to protect her identity.
Engineer
The information she channelled was analysed from an applied perspective, with the aim of translating it into more operational language. At that time, access to university education was limited to a select few, and only men. Maria's father, an engineer by profession, trained her technically. She designs anti-gravity ships, manufacturing plans... and becomes a key player in the process of connecting revolutionary knowledge with the upper echelons of power.
WOMAN
She organised a secret power circle linked to women who possessed ancestral knowledge. Sisterhood at that time was key to survival; she used her feminine skills to deny legitimacy.
Her path was marked by a constant struggle against machismo, control and authoritarian power. Between influence and resistance, these women operated on the margins of history, where they were indispensable but never recognised.
Spy
The knowledge surrounding María is no longer private. The strategic nature of the information she can obtain places her under surveillance. The various powers of the moment vie for control over her. She yields to whoever allows her to continue developing the communication channel and expanding her research. This makes her a silent intermediary and a tool of power in a territory dominated by machismo, secrecy, influence, and mistrust.
IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE
MARÍA ORSIC · AN ARTIFICIAL STORY
An immersive experience where the story is not just heard, but lived.
This installation invites the viewer to enter the universe of María Orsic, an enigmatic figure of the 20th century, through a sensory, narrative and technological journey that combines space, sound, image, artificial intelligence, history and fiction.
It is not an exhibition. It is an encounter.
THE EXPERIENCE.
The audience enters a space that functions not as a gallery, but as the beginning of a channeling. Lights, sound frequencies and an immersive space create the sensation of entering a place outside of time.
Throughout the experience, the viewer discovers fragments of a story between reality and fiction of intercepted messages, impossible plans, coded transmissions and female voices.
Finally, the audience can speak with María, ask her questions, hear her version of events, and confront the myth, history and intuition. Every conversation is unique. Each visitor activates a different narrative.
Was María a medium, a spy, an engineer, a visionary, an invention? Where does the myth end and the memory begin? And what if the story didn't disappear… but decided to leave?
