Magic Forrest Shadows Dancing

the equinox balanced
on the creast of night and day
casting dancing shadows
in the magic forrest of sun ra
where nothing is
as brilliant as
the sound of joy...
he leo centric
sun songs
the place
where space is...

my multimedia roots result from my witnessing organizations like the sun ra arkestra....horace tapscott's pan-afrikan people's arkestra...the oakland based dimesnsion's dance theater, a duet i saw between jackie mclean and romear burden, james van der zee walking in the amsterdam red lights looking for infra red images of ivan van sertima...

there i saw personified
the multimedia masking
of the traditonal spiritual syntax
that constantly resurfaces
as afrikan ancestry
with global parallels...
longitudes of loa
latitudes of laughing
buddahs...
the tearfull modeonna
masking a tent
meeting in onxy and opal
on imperial and central avenue
laced in palms and olive branches
donkey dung and camel fleece
tucked round the roll
of the snare like sand
marking time
pressed into meter...
decades condensed
across these digital deltas...
coronas of consciousness
coalaced into ka dance..

-the magic forrest- from sun ra's esp recording -nothing is- provides the introduction to a rare surfacing of the very conceptual choreography of oakland based deborah vaughn and her dimensions dance theater doing a suite provided by the nova ghost sect tet entitled ntu the 9th wonder, performed live in the calvin simmons theater in oakland, california....

yeah...i know...i need a mac...but the energy is intact...more potential soon come...
