MUSEical Portrait of Preston
“Lets Take Back our Power!” Obama in 30 seconds.
Catalyzed into action by an Obama in 30 seconds TV ad contest, I created this animation from photographs turned into puppets. Wrote the song backgrounded by 1920’s jazz and visions from earth to sky, prarie to city where our hero’s Barack and his missus inspire us to the action of taking back our power. It was fun.
Aura Adventure with Andre’
I meet Andre at a psychic fair where I am doing Portraits and Readings of people’s Auras. I see in Andre’s aura the spirits of his two great grandmothers. They take us on quite an adventure. Andre is an awesome man and a hair dresser who ‘makes women look beautiful’. I have an amazing makeover in his disco salon where we learn more about these elder spirits that are his constant companions.
“Fairy Ice Time”
This is a prototype for a episodic TV show where I take an improvisational, mind channeling journey from an idea or suggestion given to me either by the musicians I am working with or from someone in the audience. In this clip, musician AJ Talboy gives me a list of words people had entered into the Google Search Engine that day. I chose three words that someone had put together, “Fairy”, “Ice” and “Time”. It evolved into a archetypal journey betwixt woman and man. In her fairy eyes the ice man melted a bit.
CIRCUS SONG A Musical Reading of Victoria
During one of our Musical Reading Evenings a woman I had never met appeared for a reading. Victoria is her name. As soon as we sat down together I began seeing that the space around us became a huge circus tent. The song story evolved into a rich and deep journey into her experience as a circus person. Her feedback includes memories of that time and similarities to her present life journey.
