SHOT & FRIENDS Rap Video Shoot Pics + MAHATMA GANDHI Spiritual Talk MASH-UP

240 unedited photos of a music video shoot featuring rapper Shot aka Bigg Shotmusic and friends rapping -Edmonton Canada.

The photos look originally much sharper than here on YouTube where the upload system downgrades their quality. Excluded photos include those that clearly show the location's specific street address plus some excessively blurry ones. Photos mainly by Rainer Bronner plus some that include Rainer shot by Moose who appears in the video shoot.

The photo show soundtrack is two original mix music songs made with ACID® digital music creation software and free license sound samples arranged by Rainer, RV, and RI.

"Mahatma's Karma" (18 sound sample tracks) featuring Gandhi's 1931 Spiritual Talk he gave in London England (this Gandhi's speech recording copyright info if any has been searched for but not yet found - Rainer has noted this to SOCAN and reserved 1/2 SOCAN points to any potential Gandhi speech copyright holder) plus the first part of "Running Thru the Night" (28 sound samples tracks) fast tempo dance-beat music (both mixes copyright Rainer Bronner, RV, and RI - SOCAN registered).

More info about "Mahatma's Karma"

Gandhi speaks amongst a multi-ethnic up tempo dance-beat music inspired by the clash between English colonialism and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi and his "Satyagraha" - mass civil non-violent disobedience to resist tyranny.

The overlapping cacophonious sounds are forced together and patterns are on the verge of becoming undone. Colonization is not clean and tidy - it's nasty and dirty no matter who is doing it.

The Scottish bag-pipes represent Scotland's resistance to the English colonizing of the entire British Isles as their launch pad for wider exploits .... the Zulu drumming symbolizes M.K. Gandhi's time in South Africa and the Zulu resistance .... those and other sounds refer to colonized people trying to maintain their unique identity during the colonial onslaught .... the sound pattern inter-plays represent cultural clashes and synthesis.

Another version of this song is English Lions Came and Went (with lion and elephant roars for further colonialism and natural order symbolism).

"The colonization of each other's minds is the price we pay for thought." - Professor Emeritus Mary Douglas (social anthropologist)

"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." - M.K. Gandhi
