Shia LaBeouf livestreams his heart beat for art?
Shia LaBeouf has mastered the art of creating controversy and buzz out out of simply nothing. After working on several music videos, removing a tooth for Brad Pitt’s last movie ‘Fury’, and completing a marathon as part of performance art piece, Shia LaBeouf is now letting you hear his heartbeat.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Fury star is working on his latest performance art project with #IAMSORRY collaborators Nastja Sade Ronkko and Luke Turner.
The project is called Follow My Heart and was announced at SXSW. LaBeouf will livestream his heart beat for an entire week.
From THR:
“When people say, ‘listen to your heart,’ they are urging us to turn in to the loving side of our selves; the imaginative, the intuitive, the compassionate, the inner wisdom we all possess. They are telling us to listen to our passion,” read a statement from LaBeouf and his collaborators.
“With our physical distance collapsed by the networks, that innermost and most intimate of rhythms will be rendered immediate on our digital screens. Like cats have whiskers, we too are born with a guidance system: our heart. It is our inner GPS, our map, and our guide. It promises to lead us down the path of maximum fulfillment. If you #FollowMyHeart, it may lead to yours.”
Shia LaBeouf’s personal life has been filled with bizarre antics after he allegedly plagiarized a comic book for a short film he created.
