Lisa Jevbratt Para-scientific data collection web interface Jevbratt he talks about another Peruvian Amazonian people whose cosmology does; they become birds through their Ayahuasca rituals. I considered traveling to Peru to try the sacred plant myself. Could I experience the bird transformation, and see what they see, if aided by a curandero from that people? Santiago might say no since I am not initiated into their cosmology, and without the proper foundation might not be able to learn from the plant. Meanwhile Ayahuasca tourism is booming. I am not the only one that thinks that they could find answers in this harsh plant (often making people vomit for hours). What happens to sacred information when it becomes a tourist destination; when Westerners take this medicine without regard for the cosmologies that serve as the foundation for its teachings? I realized (aided by the birth of my daughter) that I am not suited to find out first hand at this moment. My lack of knowledge of the colonial languages of the Amazon (let alone the indigenous), drug-wars, kidnappings, tension 88 between indigenous spiritual and Christian practices, and the possibly extremely disorienting effects of the plant medicines, are more than enough to keep me away from the Amazonian rainforest for quite some times. In light of my fear of getting lost in the Amazon, my timeline (at least some aspects of the project need to be exhibited in the foreseeable future), and my insecurities in communicating with indigenous people, I recognized that it would be easier to get para-scientific information from someone who is firmly rooted in a western epistemological paradigm while having a practice that lies outside it. I started to work with the animal communicator Barbara Janelle who communicates with animals telepathically and through subtle body language. She does not become the animal; rather she is asking the animal to show her a picture of what they see. She works both with animals she knows and ones that she does not know, some which are present and some
