The sun ornament is my favorite ornament in The Narnia House.
I call it The Narnia House because of the triple lamp post in the front.
No other house has a lamp post let alone a triple lamp post!
There are no photos of the triple lamp post in this post.
Here is my favorite sun ornament.
And here are some furry critters.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Honed, forged, rising from fire,
kicked by the heel of the moon,
the sun bows on mountains, it’s stage.
With flare she dances,
enraptures, romances,
pirouettes, prances,
with brilliance that never will age.

Sneaky Snake

After kung fu yesterday, I was able to go see Ian’s show SONOPTIK.
It was blissful and it was great to see Ian and George and meet new friends.
Here are the photos and event info.
More event photos here to give a sense of the room and the visuals.

SUN ARAW http://sunaraw.com/
SNEAKY SNAKE http://sneakysnake.net/Event starts promptly at 8pm, Saturday November 19th
Suggested donation $10 (no-one will be turned away but space is limited)
**Strictly No-Alcohol**presented by SONOPTIK in conjunction with the Mahasukha Center.
Tom Hall with live visuals by Janeva Zentz Hall, Sneaky Snakes and Sun Araw come together to illustrate sonically the spectacular journey to High Peace. Come and sit on a cushion, lay on the floor, do yoga, interpretive dance or simply be present as washes of sound and ambient currents paint a beautiful space for mind, chakra and heart expansion.
…TOM HALL is an Audio/Visual artist based in Los Angeles (originating from Australia). Hall’s practice involves considered explorations into place, space and time. Drawing inspiration from countless ‘peripheral’ spaces, Hall focuses on using multiple approaches to engage and re-contextualize the ‘everyday’ for the public. Hall utilizes custom designed software and a variety of unorthodox analog techniques to combine imagery and sound.
…JANEVA ZENTZ is a multi-media artist and joins Hall’s performance by mixing and molding visuals live. Derived from various CA locations, the myriad of visual compositions contribute, match, mold, juxtapose, and play with Hall’s sonic fields.
…SUN ARAW, the solo p-roject of Cameron Stallones, blossomed in attempted geosynchronous orbit with the Eternal Now: oblique six-dimensional transmissions from changeless environs. Structural and spiritual inspiration for Sun Araw comes primarily from Cameron’s first artistic love: film and filmmakers, especially those invested in the long-take (Tarkovsky, Altman, Bela Tarr, Greenaway). Devoted to long-form mantric music, the ethos is similar: straight lampin’ in deep focus, angle after angle on the melodic object, gaining strength from the subsequent breakdown of the illusion of fixed perspective.
…SNEAKY SNAKE is an experimental sound project in synthesized tonal waves. Its explicit purpose is the creation of altered states and well-being within the viewer/listener. George Jensen and Ian James began Sneaky Snake by focusing strictly on long form ambience as a means to induce trance-like, semi-consciousness within the audience. Lost within the environment and their subjectivity, participants often experience worlds within themselves. Over time Sneaky Snake has invested itself in complicating the paradigm, introducing aspects of field recordings, sampling, and synthesized drum beats into its healing music.
