In development for over eleven years, X: The Human Condition has been designed to embrace the expanding possibilities of multimedia in entertainment. Featuring an immersive, multi-sensory environment, the live, dynamic concert performance by the music group X: THC, enhanced by the emotionally charged film, X: The Human Condition, previews its uplifting and stimulating shock to the senses for Thanksgiving at the Brooklyn multimedia space, Monkeytown (58 North 3rd St., Brooklyn, NY), on Wednesday, November 25th at 10:00 pm. $5 cover,$10 minimum. Full late night dinner menu available.

Thanksgiving is traditionally a time to share with family and friends, but it is also a time when some people feel most disconnected, alienated and alone. X: THC has partnered with the Jed Foundation and AFSP to donate a portion of the profits from X: The Human Condition to help these non-profit organizations in their work, dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, self-injury and suicide. They exist to encourage, educate, inspire and invest into prevention, treatment and recovery.

The inspiring music of X: THC combines the multi-layered hypnotica of smoothly grooving electronic beats, warm emotive alternative indie rock, coldly induced new wave post-modernism, lush, heartfelt, romantic blue-eyed soul & classic songwriting, with an otherworldly experimental soundscape. X: THC breaks down the walls between musical genres, challenging categorization, while communicating performance through multiple sensory applications, known as "synesthesia".

The live music and film multimedia experience examines the human condition, pulling you in to an alternate reality...UnratedNYC Magazine wrote, "X: The Human Condition is an emotionally cataclysmic event that will resonate in your subconscious for weeks…" .

Hypnotically delicious, it is a trance-inducing trip inside the human subconscious, combining hypnotic, surreal soundscapes with phantasmagorical, emotionally charged visual storytelling to create a unique and inspiring music and film multimedia experience.

X: The Human Condition alchemically fuses together influences of luminaries such as Tim Burton, Michael Gondry, Antoine St. Exupery, Darren Aronofsky, Guillermo Del Toro, Jean Cocteau, Rod Serling, The Brothers Grimm, and Joseph (John) Merrick, to create an imaginative, terrible beauty, both real and unreal, where the mind can make a hell of heaven, and a heaven of hell... X: The Human Condition.
