THE MIRROR MAZE OF ONESELF C1R1

The Mirror Maze

The Mirror Maze in the most patient and all-loving of all the rides here at Everything-World. She has no accompanying storybook, textbook or songs because her sole job is to welcome you here, into the endless sphere of your mind. Accompanied by the Great Psychic Madga, her two huge eyeballs on stalks see you from a long distance and warmly guide you to the first mirrored door of her front tooth, the grand entrance to Everything-World, if you dare. Some creatures get through the maze quickly, others stay for years, some spend whole lifetimes, in divine eternal reflection. This enchanted mirrored labyrinth is an inter-twisted web of hallways, doorways and questions. The questions of Oneself are stuck to each mirrored door with Waspy’s used bubblegum. The Mirror Maze loves to see how your answers shape shift and change as you return to certain questions, certain mirrors, year after year.

   MIRROR MAZE RIDE OPERATOR: MADGA GASKA

1. MIRROR MAZE RIDE CONDUCTOR: MADGA GASKA: Madga Gaska has lived longer in his present life than any other single soul in the world because of a crystal his mother found. He was born in 0000000123000000000000450000.678#. He has watched the rest of the world get born into new lives and have loads of different adventures, while he just stays stuck being him. This makes him jealous and cranky sometimes, but only sometimes. Madga was the initiator of The Great Runaway, inspired by the half-efforts of Mr Mist and his gang.

Madga, (who is furiously scribbling down all your answers into his notebook),  ushers you out of a triangular doorway, the grass pathways feel alive beneath your feet. Forests of Banyan trees are twinkling with sleepy magicians, hurried hobgoblins, silent smiling gambling crones and riddling sabre-toothed gnomes. You can just see the long stretching eyeball stalks of some of the other rides in the far distance.
