"Taksu" a Balinese word that can roughly be translated to an energy, power or spirit that enlivens expression. It is what makes their art so bold and impactful. It cannot be chased. It cannot be given from the outside. It must be cultivated/channeled by the individual through practice. - - - An invocation to #Taksu: May this life be a poem/a prayer. May my work be an offering in devotion to divine consciousness embodied also as my being. May primordial life force/source living in and through me have a clear channel for its most earnestly artful expression to share in and inspire the same in others. - - - Next live transmission will be this Friday and Saturday 11/25+26 at @bam_brooklyn for @akimfunkbuddha's #HipHopHoliday show. 9pm. Free and effervescent. (at BAMcafé)

#Drawing has reemerged as a central practice, a method of energetic tuning or a tarot to gauge the subconscious. Lately they've been crop circle-like. The future of our planet balances on a precipice. Will in come to #intergalactic forces to ensure a path of resilience? #kimtrails #cartography (at Planet Earth)

It was once spring. Summer has burned past, and here we are at the advent of fall. May we greet the freshness of this new season with openness, eagerness and without preconceptions, available to dance with the winds as they blow.

Brooklyn Wildlife last night: + Move along the path like you are tending a garden. + Move along the path like a pack of firecrackers. + Move along the path and express truth without expectation. +Move along the path and turn vulnerability into courage. #Dancitecture experiments with rule bending or new logic making in the default ways of moving through our space surrounding and inside. Change perspective, change emotional atmosphere, activate new narratives, get over yourself. #DANCITECTURE #MOVEMENTRESEARCH #EMBODIEDCULTURE #EMBODIEDPRACTICE #EXPERIENTIALDESIGN #EXPERIMENTALDANCE #DANCEANDARCHITECTURE #ARCHITECTUREANDDANCE #FUNKBUDDHAGALAXXXY #bwsf2016 (at The Bishop Gallery)

+How does architecture choreograph our lives? +How can dance dialogue with the space and structures around it? +How does culture embodied in movement reflect culture embodied in our built environment? These questions fuel my #DANCITECTURE research. See the project in full activation as immersive installation and experimental dance presentation with Akim Funk Buddha and Chihiro Cute-Beat Kobayashi for the Brooklyn Wildlife Summer Festival on Monday, 9/5 at The Bishop Gallery in Bed-Stuy Brooklyn. https://www.facebook.com/events/242114179516237/?ti=cl (at The Bishop Gallery)
