Join us for five classes in May and June for an exploration of two beat rhythms. We'll look at Ayyoub, Malfouf, and Karatchi on drums and zills, understanding their unique personalities and getting a feeling each one. We'll work through a warm up, the basics of the rhythm and variations, playing with other percussionists, solos, and a song. We will also include a review of the family of fours and slow 8`s. Bring a drum or zills and a notebook, and invite a friend! </blockquote>

<span style="color: #4b4f56; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">About the performers:</span><br />
<br style="color: #4b4f56; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" />
<span style="color: #4b4f56; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Aaron Dilloway is an experimental musician born in 1976. He is an improvisor and composer</span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="color: #4b4f56; display: inline; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> originally from Brighton, Michigan who works with the manipulation of 8-Track tape loops in combination with voice, tape delays and various organic and electronic sound sources. A founding member of the industrial noise group Wolf Eyes (1998 – 2005), Dilloway now resides in Oberlin, OH where he runs Hanson Records and Mailorder.<br /><br />Cher Von is an avant garde performer who incorporates wordless vocalizations, free movement, and natural found materials into profound performance pieces. Her work draws from such influences as Butoh/expressionist dance, Mary Wigman, Meredith Monk, Shelly Hirsch, and Bobby McFerrin, often serving as an exploration of spiritual and naturalist concepts. Formerly known for looping her voice with a pedal, her artistic focus has shifted into minimalistic, unamplified expression, making great use of silence and pauses. Her instrumentation varies, usually including found drift wood, handmade instruments, even the room itself. Von is embarking on a US tour from 2016 to beyond, traveling from city to city with only one bag, her voice, and open expectations for artistic growth, meeting new collaborators as well as performing in unique sceneries, with and without invitation.<br /><br />David Reed’s work has a deep, long and dark trail. His numerous recordings and collaborations are legendary. Recording under the name of Lupine, Luasa Raelon and Envenomist, his sound can be extremely dark and challenging. His latest project as Chalet Endure is an ambient collaboration with Jeff Chenault.<br /><br />Jeff Chenault is a non-musician who has been recording in Columbus since 1983. He is a cassette culture guru who has released music on his Exoteque Music cassette label for just as long. An early pioneer in the Columbus electronic music scene, his many musical projects include 10-Speed Guillotine, Central Inhabitants, Resonance and The Weird Lovemakers. He is a true underground artist who also writes books and releases rare exotica music in his spare time.<br /><br />Columbus, Ohio-based guitarist Mike Shiflet started Gameboy Records in the late 1990s, releasing limited tapes, 7″s, and CD-Rs by dozens of noise and experimental artists, including John Wiese, Cock E.S.P., Lasse Marhaug, Sudden Infant, and Crank Sturgeon. Shiflet’s myriad recordings and performances explored harsh noise and drone, often focusing on high frequencies. He joined violinist C. Spencer Yeh’s ensemble Burning Star Core in 2004, appearing on several of the group’s recordings, including Operator Dead… Post Abandoned and Papercuts Theater. Shiflet relocated to Japan in 2006, continuing to operate Gameboy Records until 2008, when he moved back to America. He released collaborations and splits with a number of artists, including Aaron Dilloway, Daniel Menche, Keith Fullerton Whitman, and Ryan Jewell, and released a pair of solo albums on Type, 2011′s Sufferers and 2012′s Merciless. He returned to Type in 2015 with his most atmospheric, melodic album to date, Awake, a collaboration with Rhode Island-based High Aura’d.<br /><br />Jeremy Purser is an Ohio-based artist, designer, and musician. His sound practice is based around iterative processing and imaginary internal spaces. His recent output includes “Levain,” a collection of improvisations with Nathan McLaughlin released by Cabin Floor Esoterica, and “Music for Indoor Cats” a self-released tape of ambient meditations. His bandcamp page can be found at: <a href="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fjeremypurser.bandcamp.com%2F&h=ATN_XA1gQWsJbeeReu0Z4MJznRmY65RfcmyoUzVsMIBhD4mYbXnDTnHr6BbfTylAGLdHyKkfZ0tJzdLAb9bUK5ya1HMRimMAH-uNjkxDcMNybfny3f9Gv19fbbhDH14pEKXXW-vXvw&enc=AZOb1k03TzzoN_rKwsWvNWBHnSuLvkS76vpuEcv9hKKYajL2jRIF5n195wwEr1Axnk4&s=1" rel="nofollow noopener nofollow" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">http://<wbr></wbr><span class="word_break" style="display: inline-block;"></span>jeremypurser.bandcamp.com/</a></span></blockquote>

<b>Workshop: A Beginner's Guide to Mitigating Physical and Digital Surveillance</b><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Workshop fee: $10-$20 sliding scale, $28-$38 sliding scale with Yubi Key </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Effective surveillance used to be an extremely expensive proposition. What once took a team of professionals and physical access to the spaces that they wished spy upon, can now be achieved with the aid of the very devices we carry on our person and place in our homes. Social media has made it exponentially easier to uncover information that can be used against you in employment, legal, and personal settings. While the type of surveillance NSA surveillance described by Edward Snowden is problematic, in reality all surveillance is local. Adversaries range from federal, state, and local police forces, to corporations, and an increasingly effective group of amateurs. </blockquote>

<b>Mud Lotus: Steadfast Attention</b><br />
<blockquote>
Our ordinary self is perfect and needs nothing extra. Yet, if we lose contact with this understanding, we fall--at the speed of thought--into self-doubt, judgment, and confusion. </blockquote>
<blockquote>
Zen teacher, Dogen wrote, "The essential way flows everywhere; how could it require practice or enlightenment? ...And yet, if you miss the mark even by a strand of hair, you are as far apart from it as heaven from earth." </blockquote>
<blockquote>
Meditation practice, in my experience, is a cycle of constant renewal: Bring the world and ourselves into a relationship of intimacy, retreating into ignorance, and returning once again to the life that I have been given.<br />
<br />
Meditation has been called, a practice of "pure steadfast attention."(Washburn 1988, 143) To have steadfast attention is to return again to the task at hand. Attention can contain the whole world, and it can be as narrow as a pin-prick. To be steadfast is to become unwavering in our resolve to meet this present moment, this place, this body, this friend in front of us, this universe of which we are a part.</blockquote>
<blockquote>
Steadfast attention is the basis of compassion. It is fundamental to any practice of care--whether care of another person, an object, or the whole earth. </blockquote>
<blockquote>
Please join us! We gather this Sunday to renew our practice of attention and to support one another by building a community of awareness. </blockquote>
<blockquote>
We will sit quietly for two 20-minute periods divided by walking meditation. </blockquote>
<blockquote>
Mud Lotus is anchored by Seth and Sara to promote the values of stillness, belonging, and engagement. We believe meditation practice should be accessible to everyone, all bodies, body types, and abilities. Folks can stay 5 min. or the whole time and move in whatever way best supports their practice. We welcome folks of all religions, races, sexualities and gender identities. Please let us know if there is something we can do to support your practice. </blockquote>
<blockquote>
Mud Lotus meets every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday at 8:00 AM; Thursdays at 6:15 AM; and the 2nd and 4th Sundays at 10:00. We charge no money for our sessions (donations warmly accepted).</blockquote>

bbob drake has been creating experimental music and audio in Cleveland for the last 45 years. From a start as a guitarist, his current focus is on electro-acoustic improvisation in both solo and group settings. His solo work spans a range from "lowercase" or "onkyokei" aesthetics (quiet, minimalist, abstract), to free jazz and more aggressive noise genres. He designs and builds the majority of his own instruments, both electronic synthesizers and original electo-acoustic designs. bbob has lead workshops in experimental electronics for music at Spaces and other venues, and he designs and sells printed circuit boards for DIY synthesizer enthusiasts. bbob's most recent recorded releases are "Failure Cake" (solo CD) and "Curiouser" (with Cleveland drummer J. Guy Laughlin) </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
HolyKindOf is multi instrumentalist J. Bryan Parks from Akron, Ohio, who began this solo venture in the late spring of 2012 as a cathartic response to personal tragedy. He uses dense layers of manipulated loops from sounds sourced primarily from cello, field recordings, tape, and voice. He sculpts his music viscerally; it can be described as a requiem of repetitive phrases, culminating in a swirl of heady delicacies, evolving melodies and crescendos. Each live performance is unique and composed specifically for each space. The composition of his live performances are open ended, improvised constructions; they can be likened to a quilt of sound pieces stitched together.<br />
<br />
Field Slee is the moniker of songwriter Alex Paquet, the name which he has performed under since 2012. Drawing influences from The National, Mount Eerie, and Grouper, Paquet’s tracks are an amalgam of fluttery guitars and crackling sound collages. He performs using guitar, voice, and variety of synthesizer-based drones and loops. Performances occasionally include accompaniment from Kyle Kerley (keys, flugelhorn) and Seth Daily (percussion). He currently lives in Columbus, Ohio</blockquote>

Then learn how to connect through breath, movement, intention and balance as you challenge yourself with poses built for two, bringing your unique collaborative flair to the process.

Their work explores relationships between the assumed-to-be “natural” and the “unnatural,” queerness and identity, ethical utopias and eco futurism, the repurposing of waste and excess, as well as the nuances of intimacy between things living and not living.

<span style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Before we can make a place in the world we must make a home in ourselves. In the most basic sense, this means learning to become comfortable in our own bodies--or we might say, becoming comfortable with our self as a living body. Accepting our body as our constant companion and the gate through which we encounter the splendor of the universe means getting to know ourselves with an intimate and non-judgmental awareness. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">As vipassana teacher, Tara Brach, writes, "Bringing Radical Acceptance into our life starts at this most basic level--becoming aware of the sensations that are continually taking place in our physical being. ...By opening mindfully to the play of sensations...[w]e free ourselves at the ground l</span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; display: inline; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">evel from the reactivity that perpetuates our suffering."<br /><br />In this session, participants will be invited to attend to their own somatic experience through techniques such as the "body scan" or by learning to decern between flavor, intensity, and geometry of physical sensation.<br /><br />We'll sit quietly for two 20-minute periods divided by walking meditation.<br /><br />Mud Lotus is anchored by Seth and Sara who believe meditation practice should be accessible to everyone, all bodies, body types, and abilities. Folks can stay 5 min. or the whole time and move in whatever way best supports their practice. We welcome folks of all religions, races, sexualities and gender identities.

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Many of us feel afraid when we consider the state of things to come. Politically, environmentally, or personally, it can feel like we are a small boat on a turbulent sea, liable to tip over at any moment and sink into the depth of the ocean. </span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">In the face of an uncertain and life-denying future, it's all the more important to support one another by embodying non-fear and by creating places of refuge for ourselves and others. When we practice in such a way that the diversity of life can flourish around us we build this sanctuary.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">As Brother Phap Dung, of the Plum Village Sangha, suggested in a recent interview, "The future is built with the present moment and how we take care of it.

If you are uncooperative, the future will be divisive. This is very important. / The future is not something that will come to us; the future is built by us, by how we speak and what we do in the present moment. / Community practice is crucial at this time. It’s crucial not to be alone in front of the computer, reading media. That makes the world dark for you. Find flesh. There are still wonderful things happening." < <a href="http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.vox.com%2Fscience-and-health%2F2016%2F11%2F22%2F13638374%2Fbuddhist-monk-mindfulness&h=bAQGWMEeK&enc=AZPGCapuxWnEr0Rg-iIFsV960mlBEZkLoBxxEWKERp3sKAYQynwF7JE8yHtukU7Ll9o&s=1" rel="nofollow nofollow" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">http://www.vox.com/<wbr></wbr><span class="word_break" style="display: inline-block;"></span>science-and-health/2016/11/<wbr></wbr><span class="word_break" style="display: inline-block;"></span>22/13638374/<wbr></wbr><span class="word_break" style="display: inline-block;"></span>buddhist-monk-mindfulness</a> ><br /><br />For the two hours of our sangha (community) gathering on Sunday, Jan 29th, we will do our best to build such a place.<br /><br />We'll sit for two 20-minute periods divided by walking meditation.

<span style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">In this session, we will focus on a posture intended for the purification of guilt and misdeeds. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">As usual, we will open the door with the Singing Shaman posture. Then participants can take the opportunity cleanse their "impurities," however they understand that, with a posture based on the Aztec goddess Tlazolteotl. Associated with decay as well as fertility, Tlazolteotl represents healing through the consumption of our guilt and regrets, especially impurities of the heart. We "feed" her our regret or shame and she leaves us clean and renewed.</span><br />

<b>Mud Lotus Sangha</b><br />
<b>Lotus Mantra Workshop</b><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
This mantra, written as Om Mane Padme Hum, is well known in Tantric Buddhism, but this particular way chanting it is unique.<br />
In this workshop, we will practice the mantra with a visualization and a dedication to the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara (also known as Chenrezig or Quan-Yin) the embodiment of compassion. Avalokiteshvara is known as the "observer of the voices of suffering in the world." The lotus represents the flowering of our true nature, which is pure, kind, and wise and the Lotus Mantra promotes that flowering. Because it grows in muddy water yet remains unsoiled, the lotus reflects clear awareness and undefiled conduct, transcending the world of delusion.<br />
<br />
No previous experience in meditation is required – the workshop is open to all.</blockquote>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56;">About the performers:</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56;">Sarah Louise is a 12-string guitarist based </span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; display: inline;">in the mountains of North Carolina. The impulse for new compositions comes frequently from observing the sounds and movements of the woods around her home. Lush and ethereal at times, yet embracing dissonance as well as tonal and time-signature shifts, her music encompasses a full spectrum of emotions. All-original tunings, picking patterns and bold transitions mark her as a unique player. Scissor Tail Editions released her first album, “Field Guide,” in early 2015, which quickly became an underground favorite. Her new album, VDSQ Volume 12, has garnered praise from media outlets such as NPR and Dusted Magazine and artists like as Ben Chasny, who calls Volume 12 an album “that makes me love the sound and possibilities of the acoustic guitar.”<br /><br />Forest Management is John Daniel, an American musician currently living in Chicago, Illinois. The ambient/drone project began in 2011 in Daniel’s hometown of Westlake, Ohio. Daniel uses digitally-processed recordings of sound sources like the piano and synthesizer to sculpt entirely new sonic hues, for the purpose of composition. His warm, fluorescent-like brand of drone has often been said to contain a cinematic, dream-like presence.<br /><br />Dominic Coppola is an electronic musician based out of Ann Arbor, MI. Pulling sounds from guitar signals, tape manipulations and other unique means, Coppola invents a new breed of ambient transmissions in a dark, yet alluring way.<br /><br />Autophonia is three folk/drone enthusiasts toying with sounds both dreamy and ethereal via acoustic instruments and electronic pedals.</span></span></blockquote>

Tools such as Ableton Live allow contemporary electronic music composers to channel this spirit while exploring the possibilities new technologies have to offer. This workshop is being taught primarily from an artistic perspective, rather than that of a technician. In other words, the philosophy behind this workshop is about making the most of what you know as an artist and musician who uses technology, rather than acquiring technical knowledge for its own sake.</span> </span></blockquote>

<br />
About the performers: </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Elka Bong is Al Margolis and Walter Wright. Al Margolis (viola/violin/clarinet) was active in the 1980s American cassette underground through his cassette label Sound of Pig Music and is co-founder of experimental music label Pogus Productions, which he continues to run. Active under the name If, Bwana since 1984, his works swing between fairly spontaneous studio constructions and more process-oriented composition. It has been said “that Al Margolis/If, Bwana is some sort of evil genius working with raw materials which are never adapted to a genre or a context, because they create one in that very moment. Those sources are radically altered up to an utterly unrecognizable state, anarchic manifestations moving in compact determination.” It’s all true… </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Walter Wright (small electronics/amplified drum kit) is an interdisciplinary artist; his practice includes computer programming, electro-acoustic music, and video performance. His focus is on “improvisation as a way of being present in the world.” Wright was one of the first video animators. At Computer Image Corp he animated letters, words, and titles for Children’s Television Workshop. He was a video animator for Ed Emshwiller’s Thermogenesis and Scapemates, aired by WNET’s Artists Television Workshop. Scapemates was the first computer graphics video nominated for an Emmy Award (1971). He showed his work at the first computer art conference at the Kitchen (NYC, 1973). In 1973-76, as artist-in-residence at the Experimental Television Center, he pioneered video performance touring public access centers, colleges, and galleries with the Paik/Abe Video Synthesizer. Wright has developed software and hardware for artists including the Video Shredder, a desktop video processor for the TARGA2K. Currently he works with Max/MSP, softVNS, and Processing. His programs and sketches are available on his blog – <a href="http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fnohtv.wordpress.com%2F&h=UAQGTH-dM&enc=AZMRtuify40_nsw2_fX77BFPM1jNQPiK8CGd4jb4l9IeUqZQ-tXkYKI8cWpBfHsFJY8&s=1">nohtv.wordpress.com</a> Wright performs with several groups including LOS CONDENADOS, Egregoros, and ensemble inedit. He plays a Bugbrand Board Weevil, a Flower Electronics Little Blue Boy, contact mics by Crank Sturgeon, drums and percussion. He recently toured with an amplified drum kit and is experimenting Martin Freeman’s Horndog and Peter Blasser’s Shnth. Wright is a co-founder of 119 Gallery, the first digital art gallery on the World Wide Web, located in Lowell MA. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
T & T began as 4-track recording project in 2005. Though T & T occasionally expands to include other musicians, they perform and record mostly solo, with a soulful croon that relates stories both mournful and beautiful. The music has a timeless, folk-noir feel; one gets the sense that these songs are beings of their own accord, birthed by magic into the air. The guitarwork is deliberate but takes its time, weaving through the songs’ intimate narratives with confident ease. </blockquote>

About the performers: </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Tenor saxophone quartet Battle Trance is proud to announce their sophomore album Blade of Love, which will be released digitally and on CD August 26 on New Amsterdam Records, with a vinyl edition released by NNA Tapes. The follow-up to their widely acclaimed debut Palace of Wind (2014), Blade of Love is an elemental composition that aims to fulfill the tenor saxophone’s expansive potential as an ensemble instrument. Working within the intimate intersection of the human body/breath and the saxophone, Blade of Love is a spiritual and enigmatic work with a deep emotional resonance. Since forming in 2012, the four saxophonists in Battle Trance (Travis Laplante, Patrick Breiner, Matt Nelson, Jeremy Viner) have spent hundreds of hours deepening their musical connection with each other, maturing as an ensemble through relentless touring everywhere from Brooklyn to Los Angeles, Montreal to Vancouver, and most places in between. The three movements of Blade of Love were composed by Battle Trance leader Travis Laplante and recorded by the group in a wooden room with soaring ceilings in the Vermont forest, after spending two years of rigorous rehearsals working to perfect the array of extended techniques, both virtuosic and primal, required to bring the challenging piece to life. Blade of Love’s central focus is on the physical and spiritual intersection of the saxophone and the human body. The saxophone is one of the few instruments that literally enters the body of the person playing it, and Blade of Love is a medium for this sacred meeting place, with each member of Battle Trance using the saxophone as a vessel for the human spirit. </blockquote>

Roughhousing is Jack Wright, saxophones, Evan Lipson, double bass, and Zach Darrup, guitar and objects. Roughhousing is the right word for the free improv this group does. At first you might think this is pure dissonance, until you realize it’s all synchronized close listening to each other from years of playing together. The part of the country most responsive to this music is the Midwest and Southeast, where they are presently touring – Columbus is the last of fifteen gigs </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
These three have all been residents of the Spring Garden Music House in Philadelphia, Zach presently. Jack and Evan have been playing for over ten years, most recently in Wrest, with percussionist Ben Bennett, originally from Columbus and now living in Philadelphia. Zach and Jack started playing in the June of 2014, an intense engagement since then, the most regular musical activity for both of them, releasing Meet and Greet. Here is a recording of Rough Housing performing at XFEST 2015 in Holyoke MA, a 2015 recording taken at Wave Farm in Hudson NY, and a more recent Jack and Zach recording taken in 2016. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Doctah X’s aka Tony Harrington’s musical inspiration began in Lexington, KY in the 1950′s by watching and listening with great fascination to his blind Aunt and blind Uncle play Gospel on the guitar and piano. His other early musical influences included The Beatles, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, and Jeff Beck. Like many others it was the European musicians that introduced him to and awakened in him an appreciation for his own American Blues. Currently, Doctah X resides in Columbus, Ohio where he maintains his same passionate pursuit of learning music as he did as a youth with the pawn shop guitar. He continues to play guitar, perform solo, and collaborate with local and international artists both on stage and in the studio. His solo work includes DJing and Live PA sets. His collaborative work includes touring the Midwest and East Coast with SkArob- a live dub partnership with the ever brilliant Bogdan Ghenea aka Rekloos that is signed with NYC based label Subatomic Sound. Presently, he is represented by Boom One Records and has enjoyed working with label mates Boom One Soundsystem, B. Davis, Dubsmith, Riverside Rockers, Jim the Boss, and Mechanik Project. In his studio he records and produces solo tracks as well as tracks for other local and international artists. Mr. Harrington also continues to provide innovative programming, as he has over the last fifteen years through the Columbus Metropolitan Library system, giving youth an opportunity to create sound, put poetry and spoken word to music, and learn more about their rich American music history.<br />

Saturday, October 8th, 10am-12pm <br />Workshop: Live Improv with Jack Wright</b><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
About the workshop: We are pleased to offer a live improv workshop with renowned saxophone player Jack Wright. Described twenty years ago as an “undergrounder by design,” Wright has been a saxophone improviser traveling through the United States and Europe since the early 1980s in search of interesting partners and playing situations. He is well known for having brought improvised music into the heartland of America at a time when it was totally unknown. Now at age 72, his musical range continues to span the width of his geographic explorations, from fiery, breathless free jazz to quiet, breath-filled, and often animalistic sounds. His work has been documented extensively on underground labels since the early 1980s. (See links below.) “Jack is utterly one-of-a-kind,” says Tom Orange, New Ghosts co-founder and Jazz Director for WCSB 89.3 FM. “Much of his playing would outrage a traditional sax instructor, but no one shows how much beauty and intrigue can be found by playing the ‘wrong’ way. Listeners with open ears and minds are going to be in for a treat.” </blockquote>

<b>Sunday, October 9th, 10am-12pm<br />Mud Lotus: Honoring the Ancestors</b><br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"The great secret of death, and perhaps its deepest connection with us, is this: that, in taking from us a being we have loved and venerated death does not wound us without, at the same time, lifting us toward a more perfect understanding of this being and of ourselves." -Rainer Rilke.<br />
<br />
Dear Friends, This October we will join with the many wisdom traditions that honor the ancestors in the fall, reflecting the death and rebirth in the seasons' cycle around us. We welcome you to bring a story, a song, or an object that reminds you of an ancestor of family, spirit, or land.<br />
<br />
We will begin by sharing our remembrances. We'll sit for two 20 min. sessions with walking meditation in-between. Then we will do an "earth touching" ceremony based on the Plum Village tradition.<br />
<br />
We believe sitting practice should be accessible to everyone, all bodies, body types, and abilities. Folks can stay 5 min. or the whole time and move in whatever way best supports their practice. We welcome folks of all religions, races, sexualities and gender identities. Please let us know if there is something we can do to support your practice.<br />

L'Andrae's work emerges from the imagination and from his practice of mindfulness in the Shambhala tradition. This work colorfully explores the inevitability of death and the sacred quality of the ordinary. </blockquote>
<blockquote>
L'Andrae' says, "My work has always been about the evolution of doodling and applying the awareness of the action itself into a work of art. It’s a style that I’ve been doing and re-discovering for over 15 years. My most recent work I created with Prismacolor Markers and Micron Pens. This body of work, I have incorporated various colors, and patterns, of the ups & downs of life-along with my personal practice of daily meditation.<br />
I personally feel the work I have now been creating has been more than just the concept of doodling, but also a personal form of meditation as well."<br />

<b><br />November 5th, 10am-12pm<br />Workshop: Ableton Live for Absolute Beginners</b><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
About the workshop<br />
While much has changed since the birth of electronic music, the spirit of the music that connects composers of today with those of the late 60s and early 70s remains. Tools such as Ableton Live allow contemporary electronic music composers to channel this spirit while exploring the possibilities new technologies have to offer. This workshop is being taught primarily from an artistic perspective, rather than that of a technician. In other words, the philosophy behind this workshop is about making the most of what you know as an artist and musician who uses technology, rather than acquiring technical knowledge for its own sake. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Workshop topics include:<br />
basic MIDI functions<br />
Ableton Intro’s library of sounds<br />

We all have ancestors of our flesh and of our spirit. We have beloved dead, relatives, friends, and pets. In this ritual we acknowledge them and share our bounty with them, sending them blessings and including them in our circle. Then we will do a trance based on the posture of ancient Egyptian figure Kouros to contact them and exchange messages. </blockquote>

<blockquote>
Come and experiment with us in this trance. Let us vision together. May we experience ourselves resting in own power.<br />
<br />
For more than twenty years, Susan G. Josephson has lead workshops which take participants through an ecstatic trance experience. Based on the work of her mother, the anthropologist and spiritual teacher, Felicitas D. Goodman, Susan has developed a syncretic technique for visionary experience. </blockquote>

<br />
*Instructions for participation: Please arrive on time, the door will be closed at 7:45 so that the session can begin without interruption. Fasting will enhance the experience, but is not required. For best results, do not eat at least 30 minutes prior to the session. Avoid alcohol throughout the day. Wear loose-fitting clothing and avoid wearing metal that touches the body.<br />
*Young adults / teens welcome.<br />
*Susan does not collect payment; donations are accepted and will be put towards maintenance of the studio space.</blockquote>

<b>These Hands: Photography by </b><b>Elizabeth Nihiser</b></div>
<blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px;">
<br />These hands grow food. These hands hold babies. These hands are kind. These hands pick daisies. They make things. And sometimes, they break things. They always tell stories.<br /><br />Hocking Hills portrait photographer Elizabeth Nihiser has been collecting images of hands for several years. "In between the big, flashy moments of life, there are quiet, intimate moments," she said.<br /><br />"After the first kiss at a wedding and before the couple is officially announced as married, there is a pause as they touch. A back is caressed, a tear is wiped, a boutonniere straightened, hair is swept off the forehead. These mundane motions are done with hands and they are generally not even noticed. But, to me, these moments are telling and suggestive. They are beautiful," Nihiser added.<br /><br />Nihiser has other reasons for collecting photographs of hands, instead of traditional face portraits. "My family's history goes way back in Southeastern Ohio," she said. "I feel a connection to Appalachia and its people. As a people photographer, I wanted to find a way to document our culture without bringing stereotypes into the images," she said.<br /><br />The imagery shows elements of the natural world — a clump of moss in "Grandpa Phil" and occupations — an ice cream server in "Cone." She takes photos of the very young in "Three Days Fresh" and the very old in "Twelve Children."<br /><br />An opening reception with refreshments is planned for Saturday, September 17th from 7-9 p.m at It Looks Like It's Open. All work on display will be for sale.

“Samādhi, a Heart of Vibrant Silence” is a musical performance without performer, part installation and part meditation. The installation displays a series of <b>autonomous musical instruments</b> composed of ancient and modern technologies forged together to create an environment of sound and vibration. Samādhi can be described as a state of intense concentration achieved through meditation. It is a spiritual state of awareness that can lead to control over the distractions that inhibit our connection to the universe.</div>

<div>
At this month's Sunday gathering, Sara Provenzale will share thoughts on cultivating "Deep Presence." We will sit in meditation for two 20-minute sessions with walking meditation in between, and will have a period of discussion (in the Dharma-sharing style).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We believe sitting practice should be accessible to everyone, all bodies, body types, and abilities. Folks may stay 5 minutes or the whole time. Participants can feel free to move in whatever way best supports their practice.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Mud Lotus was formed to promote stillness, engagement, and belonging for ourselves and all beings. Co-facilitated by Sara Provenzale and Seth Josephson. Please join us.</div>

Sara and Seth will lead a meditation and a conversation on how we can cultivate peace in ourselves so that we can relate to violence and hate in the world without succumbing to it ourselves. While there are many whose actions do harm, we need not think of them as our enemies. Rather, we can cultivate an awareness of the larger systems which create these people and within which we are also embedded.</div>

Street artist Stephanie Rond and mixed media painter April Sunami will feature new work in the exhibition Common Cosmology. The exhibit brings together themes of culture, spirituality, and humanity through painting, installation and collaborative pieces.

Common Cosmology was born out of conversations between Sunami and Rond about the new directions they were taking in their art work. “I‘m interested in how cultures and belief systems are often intertwined and ultimately they share more commonalities than differences” says April Sunami of her new paintings utilizing a female form coupled with abstracted backgrounds. Rond states that “my pieces in Common Cosmology are not intended to hold answers about humanity, but rather cultivate questions to consider and discuss. My goal is to create work that serves as a springboard for meaningful conversation. It is my belief that kindness will prevail”.</blockquote>

Stephanie Rond is a Columbus, Ohio based street artist whose colorful and feminist work can be seen on walls around the city, both inside and out. Stephanie attended Fort Hayes Arts and Academic High School and holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from The Ohio State University. She is co-founder of Creative Arts of Women (CAW), founder of the website Women Street Artists and owns S.Dot Gallery. An award-winning documentary has been created about her work. The film, Tiny Out Loud, studies Rond’s gender-gouging street art and her dollhouse art galleries in a fun but evocative exploration making gender roles smaller and the art world’s accessibility larger.</blockquote>

<br />Our May 2016 Frequency Fridays show features improvisational musician <b>Bonnie Jones (MD)</b>, experimental electronic musician <b>Lisa Miralia (OH)</b>, experimental percussionist <b>Tim Brnes (CMH)</b>, and experimental electronic music trio <b>Circuitry Room (OH)</b>, whose performance will be accompanied by video works by Columbus filmmakers Matt and Nicolette Swift. Date: Friday, My 6 2016. Location: It Looks Like It’s Open (13 E. Tulane Rd., 43202). Admission:<b> $10, $15 for 2</b>. Doors open <b>8pm. BYOB, all ages.</b> Our Frequency Fridays 2015-2016 season is supported by a grant from the Greater Columbus Arts Council.<br /><br />About the performers:<br />Bonnie Jones is a Korean-American writer, improvising musician, and performer working primarily with electronic music and text. Born in 1977 in South Korea, she was raised on a dairy farm in New Jersey and currently resides in Baltimore, Maryland. Bonnie creates improvised and composed text-sound performances that explore the fluidity and function of electronic noise (field recordings, circuit bending) and text (poetry, found, spoken, visual). She is interested in how people perceive, “read,” and interact with these sounds and texts given our current technological moment. Jones has received commissions from the London ICA and has presented her work in the US, Europe, and Asia and collaborates frequently with writers and musicians. She received her MFA at the Milton Avery School of the Arts at Bard College.<br /><br />Lisa Miralia has been a promoter and performer in the NE Ohio freeform and experimental sound communities since 2003. She composes for and performs in a number of projects both solo (as Baat) and in collaboration with others involving electro-acoustic improv, experimental electronics, noise, drone, and dark ambient sound, and has released several recordings and contributed to multiple collaboration and compilation releases. She will celebrate her 9th anniversary of hosting the Mysterious Black Box radio show on WCSB 89.3fm this year, and was featured in the City/Ruins documentary about the NE Ohio noise and industrial music scenes. Lisa lives in Lakewood, and is grateful for open-minded neighbors who don’t mind the strange musical and anti-musical sounds emanating from her abode.<br /><br />Tim Barnes is an internationally-known percussionist, electronic musician, and recording producer/engineer who has played and recorded with Sonic Youth, Wilco, Body/Head, Jim O’Rourke, Silver Jews, Neil Michael Hagerty and the Howling Hex, The Tower Recordings, The For Carnation, and MV+EE, as well as being featured in countless multiple other settings, from jazz-influenced free-improvisation to full-on rock n’ roll. He is the Artistic Director of Dreamland, and also runs the newly-revived Quakebasket record label (best known for its mid-1990s archival releases of solo work by Angus MacLise, poet and original drummer for the Velvet Underground). A California native, Tim moved to Louisville, Kentucky in 2007 from his longtime musical base, New York City.<br /><br />Circuitry Room is a think tank for audio exploration. The founding members are Andrew Izold, Jeff Chenault and Dan Rockwell. They have been playing together on and off since 1989. Their combination of old-school electronics and high tech digital applications culminate into a wall of sound that is beyond categorization. Based in Ohio, Circuitry Room seek out new forms of expression while maintaining a dark mischievous edge. Their sound is constantly changing and evolving while their “live” sonic improvisations provide a unique and challenging listening experience.<br /><br />About artists Matt and Nicolette Swift: Matt Swift is an all-around visual artist living in Columbus, Ohio. His work is not limited to any one medium or mode including photography, painting, video, digital compositions, mixed media and anything else that may be a source of inspiration. With an education in Art History, Film and Media Studies, and Library Science, the majority of his work stems from a deep connection to the historical avant-garde and experimental movements of all art forms. Juxtaposition of styles to find new abstract connections is where most of his work begins. Every piece is scientifically and creatively an experiment with a hypothesis that is tested and either is proven or disproven. What engagement occurs when you mix meditation and action painting to create a wall scroll combining the styles of Jackson Pollock and Zen Buddhist painters? What about the combination of purist structuralist cinematic techniques with the motivations of Norman McLaren’s frame by frame hand etched animations inspired by music? The end result encompasses a documentation of the experiment fit for a postmodern world, updating and educating about the styles of old through the lens of the plethora of information that is at the fingertips of our ever shrinking but also expanding digital world.<br /><br />Since high school, Columbus video artist Nicolette Swift has been capturing life and creating videos. In 2005 she graduated from The Ohio State University with a double major in Art History and Film and Media Studies. While in her undergrad she discovered a love for working with archival materials. She obtained a Master’s of Library and Information Science with a focus in multi-media access from Kent State University in 2007. Since then she has worked with many individuals as well as The Ohio State University and The West Ohio Conference of the United Methodist Church to create promotional and educational videos and materials. With the help of her husband and the support of OSU’s Film Studies Program she co-founded The Columbus Moving Image Art Review, which has been holding quarterly hour-long screenings for a year. Currently, her personal projects include avant garde video essays that incorporate found, archival, and cultural materials and turns them into a new video.<br /><br /><a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/1024583987634895/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/<wbr></wbr>events/1024583987634895/</a><br /></blockquote>

<span style="font-size: 12.8px;">March is the last month of a three month self defense workshop, using an easy to learn and retain self defense system. We give you the the tools to defend yourself if ever put in a situation where need be. We will also give you the confidence to properly use these tools in an unfortunate situation where self-defense applications would be needed. This class will work with de-escalation and basic self defense for the most common sort of attacks. We will be combining fitness and self-awareness, in a fun and safe environment. You will learn how to present yourself as neither a victim or a threat, you will learn positioning and displacement techniques (you don't have to be big and "strong" to defend yourself), you'll even get to learn some cool techniques from the German special forces. While hopefully we'll never be in need of drastic self-defense, we can at least have the proper tools to deal with some situations.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="background-color: purple; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: purple; color: white;">About the artists:</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: purple; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: purple; color: white;">Carol Genetti is a vocalist, composer and installation artist. Her work is focused on the interplay between the voice as an expressive musical instrument and its extension into the sound-making realm. She has studied a variety of techniques including Western singing, Hindustani classical voice and Bulgarian folk music. Through these studies and her own explorations, she has developed a personal yet universal palette that is an abstraction of "extended" voice sounds — breaths, overtones, and disconnected textual bits, squeaks, growls, non-verbal tones — sounds that evoke unconscious emotions and human physicality. Genetti has toured throughout the US, Canada, France and Germany and has performed numerous live concerts as an improvisational vocalist.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: purple; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: purple; color: white;">Dissilient is a duo consisting of Paul Markus (of Shrive) and Chris Bilecki (of Chiaro Scuro). Dissilient works with analog and digital electronics and the use of objects to create sets that combine noise, ambience and electroacoustic aesthetics that focus on texture.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: purple; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: purple; color: white;">Aaron Michael Butler is a percussionist/composer currently based in Athens, OH. He regularly presents concerts of contemporary solo and chamber music, and has been active in the creation of new works through commissioning composers of his generation. Recent performance highlights include the 2013 Athens International Film Festival, 2014 Percussive Arts Society International Conventions, the 2014 Ohio University World Music and Dance Festival with marimbist Pei-Ching Wu, and a performance with Luciano Chessa's Orchestra of Futurist Noise Intoners in 2015. In 2010 Aaron founded the NOBROW.collective; in conjunction with the Athens International Film Festival NOBROW has commissioned Deep Earth - a large-scale, multimedia work - from composer Matthew Burtner which was premiered in April 2014.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: purple; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: purple; color: white;">Columbus-based sound artist John Osburn hears sound like a painter sees color, paying particular attention to the textures and shading of each element within his work. He not only listens to how his sounds thread in and out of each other, but also focuses on how they are affected by the space in which they resonate. Rather than creating music, Osburn focuses on creating a sound environment in which to immerse his audience. Sourcing from his eclectic background in Western music, African drumming, and Sonic Arts studies, Osburn creates a unique musical blend which floods out of his speakers in an evocative array of frequencies.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: purple; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: purple; color: white;">Megan Yankee is a Columbus-based indie dancer and choreographer who seeks opportunities to make and present choreography in alternative spaces in order to expand the reach of concert dance. Megan has performed and presented work nationally and internationally at the Nomad Express Multi Arts Festival in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, the Sonic Arts Research Center in Belfast, Northern Ireland, American Dance Festival, American College Dance Festival, Texas Dance Improvisation Festival, Movement Intensive in Composition and Improvisation, Emerge and Exchange Dance Festivals, {254} Festival, Out of Loop Festival, and the Rogue Festival. I have had the honor of performing in works by Amie LeGendre, Larry Keigwin, Michael Foley, Christie Nelson, Jordan Fuchs, Sandy Mathern-Smith and Sarah Gamblin.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: magenta;"><b>Queer Behavior</b>'s successful Queer Storytelling Tea Time was so well attended when it was at ILLIO that it's moved to a bigger space on CCAD's campus. ---></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: magenta;"><b>Friday, March 25th, 8-10:pm, </b><b>Tea Time: A Queer Storytelling Event. Canzani Center, 60 Cleveland Ave, Columbus, Ohio 43215. </b>Time to spill the tea. Let's get together and share our truth! Bring your 3-10 minute story and a willingness to be front and center. We'll provide an audience, a theme, and some snacks! Make them funny, sad, frightening, charming, or a mix...just enjoy yourself and we'll enjoy your story. The theme this time will be "LEGACIES: AGELESS STORIES OF OUR QUEER ELDERS". We are seeking stories about and from our elders! Special emcees Erin Upchurch and Zack Baird will lead a combination of featured speakers and same-day submissions to create two hours of realness. Listeners and tellers are equally welcome. Sharing stories is a powerful way to deconstruct and reclaim narratives while making meaning that is one’s own. Too often we take details that are thrust upon us by the social hegemony or even by each other. Ask yourself: is this my story or someone else’s? Telling your story, in your way, acts to shuck that which is obstructive. Doing this together in a safer space creates an environment primed to actually being heard. We also will have an opportunity to consider our collective narrative as a queer community. Donations are welcome!<a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/1012561425470201/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/<wbr></wbr>events/1012561425470201/</a></span></div>

It's not to late to get yourself (or a loved one) a gift that will truly keep on giving and start your new years resolution at the same time! This January will will begin a three month self defense workshop. Using an easy to learn and retain self defense system. Over the next few month we will not only give you the the tools to defend yourself if ever put in a situation where need be. We will also give you the confidence to properly use these tools in an unfortunate situation where self-defense applications would be needed. This class will work with de-escalation and basic self defense for the most common sort of attacks. We will be combining fitness and self-awareness, in a fun and safe environment. You will learn how to present yourself as neither a victim or a threat, you will learn positioning and displacement techniques (you don't have to be big and "strong" to defend yourself), you'll even get to learn some cool techniques from the German special forces. While hopefully we'll never be in need of drastic self-defense, we can at least have the proper tools to deal with some situations.</div>

Dear friends,</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Join us for our January Sangha meeting. There will be sitting meditation, walking meditation, a reading, and sharing from the heart.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
"We all have the tendency to struggle in our bodies and in our minds. We believe that happiness is possible only in the future. The realization that we have already arrived, that we don't have to travel any further, that we are already here, can give us peace and joy. The conditions for our happiness are already sufficient. We only need to allow ourselves to be in the present moment, and we will be able to touch them. What are we looking for to be happy? Everything is already here. We do not need to put an object in front of us to run after, believing that until we get it, we cannot be happy. That object is always in the future, and we can never catch up to it. We are already in the Pure Land, the Kingdom of God. We are already a Buddha. We only need to wake up and realize we are already here." (Thich Nhat Hanh, from "Cultivating the Mind of Love")</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Wake Up is an active global community of led by young mindfulness practitioners, aged 18-35, and inspired by the teachings of Zen teacher and peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh. We come together to practice awareness in order to take care of ourselves, nourish happiness, and contribute to building a healthier and a more compassionate society. All ages are welcome at our gatherings.</div>

<br />
January's Full Moon is known at the Wolf Moon in honor of the hungry beasts who howled outside the villages at this deep point of Winter. Join us for a dancing and drumming celebration to shake off the stiffness of the season and reconnect with your inner fire.<br />
Dancers, musicians, and movement artists are invited to perform, and audience members and onlookers are invited to applaud, ooh, and aah to your hearts' content.<br />
Our live musicians will be available to make spontaneous magic for those who would like accompaniment, and recorded music is also welcome if that's what moves you best. This supportive halfa-style environment is suitable for dancers of all levels from beginner to experienced. Please contact me if you would like a spot in the show.<br />
<br />
Open dancing will also be offered for those who might not like to perform but still want to make an offering to the moon.<br />

<b style="font-size: 12.8px;">It's not to late to get yourself (or a loved one) a gift that will truly keep on giving and start your new years resolution at the same time! This January will will begin a three month self defense workshop. Using an easy to learn and retain self defense system. Over the next few month we will not only give you the the tools to defend yourself if ever put in a situation where need be. We will also give you the confidence to properly use these tools in an unfortunate situation where self-defense applications would be needed. This class will work with de-escalation and basic self defense for the most common sort of attacks. We will be combining fitness and self-awareness, in a fun and safe environment. You will learn how to present yourself as neither a victim or a threat, you will learn positioning and displacement techniques (you don't have to be big and "strong" to defend yourself), you'll even get to learn some cool techniques from the German special forces. While hopefully we'll never be in need of drastic self-defense, we can at least have the proper tools to deal with some situations.</b></div>

This event is a reading to raise money for Bookspace, a bookstore/community event space coming to Columbus! After the reading, we will have lots of incredible books and zines for sale if you want to stick around, as well as snacks and drinks. This is a community event--I would love to hear from people what they would like to see from an independent bookstore in their neighborhood. We will be taking donations to help get a brick-and-mortar location, hopefully within a year. Please come to help support independent bookstores!

About the performers:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Bhob Rainey is an award-winning composer / performer, saxophonist, and sound designer. In 1998, with trumpeter Greg Kelley, he founded the duo Nmperign, which quickly became a model for a new phase of non-idiomatic improvisation often referred to as “lowercase” or “EAI” (Electroacoustic Improvisation). In 2000 he founded The BSC, an improvising large ensemble, in which he developed techniques for an improvisational discipline that were eventually outlined in his 2011 publication, Manual. Throughout the late 1990′s and early 2000′s he performed globally and collaborated with numerous improvisers of both the (then) current and previous generations, including Axel Dörner, Andrea Neumann, Günter Müller, Michel Doneda, Lê Quan Ninh, and many others.

If you’ve done these before, you know that these are challenging and rewarding workouts and a great way to have a little fun with friends. If you’re new to group exercise or I haven’t seen you in a while, I promise to be kind! The temps will be cold, and if we’re lucky the snowflakes will fly – it adds to the drama, spirit, and bragging rights! This is the 10th Annual 8 Nights Of Hanukkah, so many of you are familiar with these workouts, and I can’t wait to do them again! If you’re not sure what it’s all about… let’s just say that you’ll burn off some cookies and your sore legs will remind you to back off the latkes and wine! We will be both inside the studio and outside. Weather is always a factor in outdoor classes, but please know that I will ALWAYS have safety in mind and plan exercises and classes accordingly.</div>

This workshop will focus on sonification. In particular, we’ll look at translating the electrical behavior of squid neurons into sound waves. We’ll see how this particular translation carries its own, idiomatic timbres and phrasing, and we’ll make a musical piece focusing on these qualities. For context, we’ll examine some historical sonification techniques and talk about what goals one might be pursuing when employing sonification.</blockquote>

SuperCollider is a powerful environment for sound synthesis and algorithmic composition, but many newcomers encounter a steep learning curve. This hands-on workshop will get you up and running with SuperCollider, exploring classic synthesis techniques and, tying into the previous lecture, implementing some sonification strategies. Attendees will get a sense of what particular strengths SuperCollider has in comparison to Max/MSP, PD, etc.</blockquote>

Wake Up is an active global community of led by young mindfulness practitioners, aged 18-35, and inspired by the teachings of Zen teacher and peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh. We come together to practice awareness in order to take care of ourselves, nourish happiness, and contribute to building a healthier and a more compassionate society. All ages are welcome at our gatherings.<br />
<br />
Also, I (Seth) will be aging out of Wake Up's core community at the end of January, so I will be hosting just two more monthly Sangha meetings. If you are 18-35 and are interested in helping organize Wake Up Columbus, let me know, I'm happy to support from outside. We will also check in about organizational thing at this and the January meeting. <span style="color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18.76px;"><br /></span><br />

</div>
<blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px;">
<br />
If you’ve done these before, you know that these are challenging and rewarding workouts and a great way to have a little fun with friends. If you’re new to group exercise or I haven’t seen you in a while, I promise to be kind! The temps will be cold, and if we’re lucky the snowflakes will fly – it adds to the drama, spirit, and bragging rights! This is the 12th Annual 12 Days Of Christmas, so many of you are familiar with these workouts, and I can’t wait to do them again! If you’re not sure what it’s all about… let’s just say that you’ll burn off some Christmas cookies and your sore legs will remind you to back off the egg nog and wine! We will be both inside the studio and outside. Weather is always a factor in outdoor classes, but please know that I will ALWAYS have safety in mind and plan exercises and classes accordingly.<br />
<br />
Please RSVP to the Facebook event, or email or text me to let me know you’re coming. Camaraderie, teamwork, and motivation from friends are key to group exercise, so tell your friends – all are welcome!<br />

Dear friends,</div>

"We all have the tendency to struggle in our bodies and in our minds. We believe that happiness is possible only in the future. The realization that we have already arrived, that we don't have to travel any further, that we are already here, can give us peace and joy. The conditions for our happiness are already sufficient. We only need to allow ourselves to be in the present moment, and we will be able to touch them. What are we looking for to be happy? Everything is already here. We do not need to put an object in front of us to run after, believing that until we get it, we cannot be happy. That object is always in the future, and we can never catch up to it. We are already in the Pure Land, the Kingdom of God. We are already a Buddha. We only need to wake up and realize we are already here." (Thich Nhat Hanh, from "Cultivating the Mind of Love")</div>

January's Full Moon is known at the Wolf Moon in honor of the hungry beasts who howled outside the villages at this deep point of Winter. Join us for a dancing and drumming celebration to shake off the stiffness of the season and reconnect with your inner fire.<br />
Dancers, musicians, and movement artists are invited to perform, and audience members and onlookers are invited to applaud, ooh, and aah to your hearts' content.<br />
Our live musicians will be available to make spontaneous magic for those who would like accompaniment, and recorded music is also welcome if that's what moves you best. This supportive halfa-style environment is suitable for dancers of all levels from beginner to experienced. Please contact me if you would like a spot in the show.<br />
<br />
Open dancing will also be offered for those who might not like to perform but still want to make an offering to the moon.<br />

Pranayama has been source of both physical and psychological healing in my life. Prana refers to a basic, universal, all-pervading life force energy long recognized by eastern thought, which is now being more fully appreciated and studied by western science. Yoga practitioners all over the centuries have found that practicing pranayama or Yogic breath we can access this energy, harness and utilize its power. Yoga Breath is thus a wonderful key to good health, longevity and it is also a superb lead-in to meditation. Simone is finishing her Pranayama teaching certification through Yoga On High. </div>

The Kraken Quartet is a four-piece, all percussion band comprised of Chris Demetriou, Andrew Dobos, Taylor Eddinger, and Sean Harvey. Founded in Ithaca, NY in 2011, the group takes influences of pop, rock, experimentalism, and minimalism to create their own exciting brand of music. To date, the group has released 3 recordings of original and commissioned music, and performed throughout cities in the Northeast and Midwest. </div>

<br />I'm just back from Blue Cliff Monastery. It's nice to have a retreat but it's more important to maintain a regular practice. Come for community support at Wake Up Columbus. Our monthly Sangha meetings consist of sitting meditation, walking meditation, a reading, and sharing from the heart.<br /><br />Wake Up is an active global community of led by young mindfulness practitioners, aged 18-35, and inspired by the teachings of Zen teacher and peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh. We come together to practice awareness in order to take care of ourselves, nourish happiness, and contribute to building a healthier and a more compassionate society. All ages are welcome at our gatherings.<br /><br />Wake Up Columbus sessions are either led by Claire W. or me, Seth Josephson.<br /><br />Claire is also developing mindfulness community in Westerville, Ohio. Updates and contact here: <a href="http://wholeheartsanghaofwesterville.wordpress.com/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">wholeheartsanghaofwester<wbr></wbr>ville.wordpress.com</a>.<br /><br />And, I am also sitting in meditation three mornings a week at ILLIO, 13. E Tulane, 8:05-8:30 AM.<br /><br />All worldly things are brief, like lightning in the sky. This life you must know as the tiny splash of a raindrop; a thing of beauty that disappears even as it comes into being. Therefore set your goal. Make use of every day and night to achieve it." -Tsongkhapa<br /><div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Pranayama
has been source of both physical and psychological healing in my life.
Prana refers to a basic, universal, all-pervading life force energy long
recognized by eastern thought, which is now being more fully
appreciated and studied by western science. Yoga practitioners all over
the centuries have found that practicing pranayama or Yogic breath we
can access this energy, harness and utilize its power. Yoga Breath is
thus a wonderful key to good health, longevity and it is also a superb
lead-in to meditation. Simone is finishing her Pranayama teaching
certification through Yoga On High. </span></span></div>

whether of compassion or irritation, should be welcomed, recognized,
and treated on an absolutely equal basis; because both are ourselves.
The tangerine I am eating is me. The mustard greens I am planting are
me. I plant with all my heart and mind. I clean this teapot with the
kind of attention I would have were I giving the baby Buddha or Jesus a
bath. Nothing should be treated more carefully than anything else. In
mindfulness, compassion, irritation, mustard green plant, and teapot are
all sacred.” - Thich Naht Hanh (1996)</span></span></div>
