The Diary – CONTACT IMPROV SEOUL

The thoughts & feelings that we have in the final minutes before we fall asleep determine what flows in our sleeping state and what that creates in the waking state thereafter.
Our mind reprograms in sleep.
If we consciously change what we think & feel in those final few minutes before sleep, can we change what flows & what is programmed?

잠들기 바로 직전 우리가 가지는 생각과 감정은 수면상태 동안의 의식의 흐름을, 그리고 수면상태이후, 깨어난 상태에서 무엇을 창조해내는 지를 결정합니다.
우리의 마음은 자는 동안 다시 프로그래밍됩니다.
만약 우리가 잠들기 바로 직전, 마지막 몇분동안 생각하고 느끼는 것을 의식적으로 바꿀수 있다고 한다면, 자는 동안의 의식의 흐름과 프로그래밍되는 내용들 역시 바꿀수 있을까요?

–>FLOW–>-the current that carries-

FLOW is a state of mind which is reached when there is high challenge and high skill. Everything else ceases to exist as one becomes completely engrossed in the moment. This series of events aims at bringing the artists and audience together into the current. Combining thought-provoking concepts, intense actions, and surreal visual metaphors, the performance art, video, and sound will carry the audience to a place that is…

–>(흐름)–>-어떤것을 수반하는 흐름-

FLOW(흐름)는 고도의 도전과 기량이 있을때 나타나는 정신상태입니다. 그 밖의 것들은 현재에 완전히 몰입되는 순간 소멸하게 됩니다. 계속되는 시리즈 형식의 이번 이벤트는 아티스트들과 관객들이 함께 이 흐름에 합류하게 하는데 그 목적이 있습니다. 시사적이고, 역동적인 행위, 그리고 비상한 시각적 은유가 결합된 퍼포먼스, 비디오, 사운드 아트는 아래와 같은 내용으로 여러분을 초대합니다.

I’m doing a “photobooth” type of thing for a wedding reception tonight, and am borrowing a ringflash to use for it. I wanted to test it out before the reception (I’d never used one before, but have always loved the look of it!) so Casey and I shot with it for about 15 minutes last night after I did new headshots for her. I absolutely love it! I’m now tempted to buy a ringflash for myself…what do you think? :) It was a ton of fun to shoot these…Casey & I spent pretty much the entire time laughing!

Many more on my blog! :)

The Pokhot live in the Baringo and Western Pokot districts of Kenya and in Uganda.
There are two main sub-groups depending of their location and way of life. The first group consist of the Hill Pokot who live in the rainy highlands in the west and in the central south, and are mainly farmers and pastoralists. The second group is made up of the Plains Pokot who live in dry and infertile plains, with their cattles. A homestead is composed of one or more buildings for a man, his wife and children; eventual co-wives live in separate houses. The role of the community in teaching children ethical rules. Most of the Pokot are nomadic and thus have interacted with different peoples, incorporating their social customs.The Pokot are very proud of their culture. The Songs, storytelling, and decorative arts, especially bodily decoration, are very appreciated. They adorn the body with beads, hairstyling, scarification, and the removal of the lower central incisors. Pokot girls wear a beaded necklace made of the stems of an asparagus tree. Most Pokot have some knowledge of herbal medicine, so they often use these treatments along with those of the hospitals. They belong to the Kenya’s Nilotic-speaking peoples. .
For the Pokot, the universe has two realms: the above is the realm of the most powerful deities—Tororot, Asis (sun), and llat (rain); and the below is the one where live humans, animals, and plants. Humans are responsible for the realm that they inhabit, but they rely upon divinities to achieve and maintain peace and prosperity. They worship many deities like the sun, moon and believe in the spirit of death.The Pokot communicate with their deities through prayer and sacrifice. They perform it during ethnic festivals and dances. Oracles are responsible for maintaining the spiritual balance within the community. They are superstitious and believe in sorcery, so sometimes they call on shielding lucky sorcery. They have prophets, either male or female, who foresee advise, usually by the means of animal sacrifices. His or her ability is considered as a divine gift. Clan histories recount the changes of location, through poetry and song, emphasizing the vulnerability of humans and the importance of supernatural powers to help them overcome hunger, thirst, and even death. Ceremonies mark the transitions in the people’s social lives. Among these are: the cleansing of a couple expecting their first child; the cleansing of newborn infants and their mothers; the cleansing of twins and other children who are born under unusual circumstances; male and female initiation; marriage; sapana, a coming-of-age ceremony for men; and summer-solstice, harvest, and healing ceremonies. The most important rite of passage for most Pokot is circumcision for boys and clitoridectomy for girls. These rites consist of a series of neighborhood-based ceremonies, emphasizing the importance of having a good behavior. When boys are circumcised, they acquire membership in one of eight age sets. Women do not have age-sets. After excisions, for several months, girls have a white painting on their face and wear a hood made of blackened leather with charcoal and oil. This means they are untouchable until the lepan ceremony, that marks the passage to womanhood. Unlike other tribes, the Pokot keep the affiliation to their clan throughout their lives, there is no disruption with marriage. Surprisingly, the agreement before marriage is made by gift giving, from the groom and his family to the bride and her family, often over a period of years (and not the contrary). It often implies the gift of a combination of livestock, goods, and cash to the bride’s family, and the allotment of milk cows and rights to land to the bride. The bond between a husband and wife lasts for 3 generations, after what marriages can take place again between the two groups. Polygamy exists but is not prevalent among men before 40. The spirits of the elder anticipate reincarnation in their living descendants: when a child is said to resemble the elder, the same name is given. Disputes are resolved in neighborhood councils and in government courts. Some of the sanctions include shaming, cursing, and bewitching.
