Tree Bird Moon Ghost [microvideopoetry]

White fire spills from
the cauldron of the night,
where spirits gather
before they arrive
and after they return.

The site where I drew the image. The bamboo music is a snippet from Desert, a free download on LastFM.

(Yesterday I uploaded this micro video poem to Blogger, and to my album of 'Poem Paintings' at Picasa, but was unable to view either on my iPhone. I've uploaded to YouTube, instead.)


This slide went by too quickly to
include it in the micro video poem.

                                          

Tree Bird Moon Ghost

Blogger's movie has a charm, yes it does. In that smallness.
Tree Bird Moon is also secretly -only not so now- uploaded
to Picasa. If you click on the image below you will go to a
decent size and resolution of the 23 second movie:

Below, one of the slides I didn't use in the slideshow movie,
which was very short, and this slide whipped by too quickly
(click for a larger size, the scribbler site has potential,
I tell you it does):

White fire spills from
the cauldron of the night,

and after they return.

I wanted to show my brother how easy it is to make a slideshow movie in Picasa (for the desktop). As I was waiting for him, I started to collect a sample of benign images. He was held up. I ended up making a tiny movie out of some scribbles I did in the winter. Then I recorded a few lines from Wear White Paint for the Moon, fiddled a bit to get some reverberation going, added a bit of Bamboo flute in the background, and here you have it.

The site where I drew the image is cool - do try it out: http://www.zefrank.com/scribbler/scribblertoo/

Asura's (Red Puma) '360' ...a music album

Royalty-free music for professional licensing

direct link: Asura (Red Puma), '360.'

An album that shines, relaxing, full, sweeping, ghostly, beautiful... a symphonic New Age, without the superficiality of the latter, a whole forest of musical sounds, instruments, technical techniques, all founded on real voice, real instruments, O what a find! I downloaded three minutes into the first track. Highly recommended.

                                          

YouTube Channel background

I like the abstraction of this still from 'dance/ ...indigo folio leaves,' and am currently using it as my YouTube Channel background while this video is featured.

I've been using a still from whatever video is featured as the background for my video channel at YouTube recently and quite like the echoing, painterly look that is achieved.

Each videopoem seems to have a strong and unique palette, and the colour schemes from one video to the next don't match. So I've enjoyed uploading an image from the current video as a background so that the webpage is a coherent visual presentation. Design? laughs -yes, all the way.

Update: I fiddled with it so much that YouTube is claiming to save my changes, and then reverting to a standard channel design when I click back. Some play is good, but not too much.
