When we tell stories, we are doing more than entertaining or orating; we are sharing part of our identity. Many of us approach the stage sheepishly, as if we might get kicked off. Some of us make nervous requests, fiddling with our guitar. Some, like Alex Gilliam and Emily Loftis, request politely for attention, shuffling […]
On December 11 & 12, R4 presented our rendition of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. Our adaptation, by Ignatz Ratskywatsky, is drawn directly from the original. While the story has been significantly shortened, what remains are, for the most part, the words of Charles Dickens, himself. Many historians agree that the state of observance of […]

Spirits of the Night VI Gong Bath, 明亮之夜 VI 聆聽宇宙之聲 Listening to the sounds of the Universe – Gong Bath 聆聽宇宙之聲 銅鑼聲是一個美麗強勁的振動音符，銅鑼浴中不斷堆疊的鑼聲，它就像水滴沖刷肌膚般，沐浴在鑼聲之中彷彿在瀑布下洗滌全身。鑼聲是唯一可以讓內在深處產生空間振動的神聖樂器，銅鑼是靈魂之聲，當我們敲擊鑼，就如同敲擊了宇宙，進入浩瀚星河漩渦中洗滌身心。聲波會讓我們沉靜、放鬆，也更加接近內在自我。 跟著我們舞動肢體、深長呼吸，釋放身體與情緒中的負面能量，然後全然放鬆聆聽來自宇宙星體運轉的鑼聲，給自己一個寧靜的夜。 Gong sound notes are beautiful and strong vibrations, a gong bath constantly stacked over top one another, Like water droplets hitting the surface of your skin, as if washing the body under […]

Stagetime & Juice: Stage Time and Juice is held only once every two months. In the past 4 months (3 Juices) we’ve been in the rather amusing position of seeing our performance area double in size, moving from the drapery enclosed confines of our Da An Road Aveda Learning Kitchen location to the high-ceilinged, brightly […]
Renaissance Festival View slide show In the early hours of the twenty-first, we stood across the street mumbling drowsy greetings and admiring the banner adorning the entrance of the TAF compound. Even from a distance its vibrant colors and characters captured our attention. Ten minutes later we gathered under the festival tents, decidedly more lively […]
Reflections on Aside 11 @ the Red Room I remember watching my dad meditate when I was young. I tried to imitate him, but I just couldn’t keep myself from fidgeting, my mind from racing. As I grew older, meditation, as well as the spiritual benefits it offers remained beyond my reach. I struggled to […]
