It's been a long and trying journey to finally make it to my promised land.

Deep Sounds: We Get Around – The Sacred Geography of 21st Century Renaissance Civilization

By Michael Garfield at December 21, 2011 | 10:24 am | 2 Comments

Originally published at The Renaissance Project “As viewed by astronauts from the moon, the earth lacks those lines of sociopolitical division that are so prominent on maps.  And as recognized here below, the web of interlacing socioeconomic interdependencies that now enfold the planet is of one life.  All that is required is a general change of vision to accord with more...

Art is the Medicine, Culture is the Dis-ease

By Dank Phart The Pirate Poet at December 18, 2011 | 3:17 pm | 0 Comment

This was inspired by Sonic Blossom, Oct. 14-15 2011 at Cervantes Masterpiece Ball Room, Denver, CO. Alchemy oozes from the speakers in sonic vibrations sending the crowd into ecstatic movement. Swimming through a sea of people, anything is possible. I leave behind the fake life to discover something deeper and untold.  Thought ceases as I reach a point of pure more...

Raindance Campout 2011 – Videos From The Frontier Of Sound

By Drift Dodgers at July 7, 2011 | 10:52 pm | 1 Comments

We drove north of San Francisco through wine country, into the thick Mendocino National Forest just east of Ukiah. The rain was already coming down when we arrived; I put on my foul weather gear and new boots as we headed out to explore the grounds. The venue was a retreat and healing center perfect for a small festival like this - there were cabins to rent, heated more...

Inside a Brilliant Mind: a Video Interview with VJ Zebbler

By Caelila at May 15, 2011 | 2:27 pm | 1 Comments

I've been a huuuge Zebbler fan ever since the infamous Mooninite Incident/Boston "Bomb" Scare in 2007 and the uproarious press conference in which he refused to talk about anything besides 70's haircuts ... creator of the Shpongletron, one of DJ Magazine's Top 20 VJs, a true renaissance man and rockstar from Mars, he is a great inspiration to me - I was so excited to more...

Deep Sounds: Live Art Is Nonsense

By Michael Garfield at January 27, 2011 | 12:54 am | 0 Comment

(Originally published at D/Visible Magazine, this is Part Five in the ongoing essay series on live art, Painting While Dancing.) Setting up an easel at concerts and inviting people to watch as you paint (or sculpt, or arrange flowers, or whatever art form you do that is more typically hidden from prospective audiences) is…different. Most art forms are kept more...

EOTO: Two Guys, Two Shows, Two Cities, Too Sick (Part 2)

By D~R Dyaphonoyze at April 6, 2010 | 11:27 pm | 0 Comment

Being back in the Emerald Trinity was comforting, and there was no doubt that EOTO was about to bring another night of hard womps and steady rhythms to the heady Humboldt public. The night began in quite a rush; running errands, picking people up for the show... my anticipation for round two of the EOTO run mounting with every passing minute. On the way down, the mood more...
