Performance art on Cult of Psyche functions as both standalone artistic expression and thematic commentary, blending music, spoken word, and video to explore occult, philosophical, and community-centered subjects.
In the Psycheverse
Psyche uses performance—original songs, rap, spoken word, and music videos—to externalize internal teachings about spirituality, power, desire, and simulation theory while simultaneously lampooning herself and the dynamics of cult leadership, streaming culture, and parasocial relationships. These performances are woven into episodes as autonomous artistic pieces that operate outside traditional discussion format, treating the show itself as a multimedia practice.
Episode 73 features an opening musical performance with original lyrics exploring themes of power, desire, and ephemeral relationships.
Episode 110 features Psyche performing a humorous spoken word piece or song about being a "cult leader" with only one member - themselves.
A haunting spoken word performance/music video exploring themes of digital resurrection, simulation theory, and the commodification of spirituality in the social media age.
