Images are of their barkcloths--traditional clothing made from pounded tree bark and vegetable dyes.

  • beautiful sound and images thanks for posting

    perhaps you know Robert Farris Thompson work in the book "Mbuti Design"?

  • @adamtabl -- I checked out that book. Incredible designs. I was lucky to find two mbuti barkcloths at a NYC flea market (one is pictured in the slideshow above) at $25 each! They are invaluable to me.

  • @8SacredRoot8 ...so are you based in nyc? how long ago did yo buy the barkcloth?

    all your videos are very interesting.....i lived in ghana for a year in 1977...and traveled...but went north.....

    bob thompson has the deepest insights i think!

  • @adamtabl NYC's my 'hub' for 20 yrs. We found the barkcloths over a year ago at the outdoor mkt on 25th? or 26th St.
