The Senses
Greetings, exquisite beings of light!
Fine imagery.
A moment made tangible. A picture speaks a thousand words, and volume. We tend to orbit with accomplished, talented photographers of the performing arts.
Recently, Michael was randomly called to a unique performance opportunity at the Long Center in Austin - On March 13, she will be modeling for a lighting seminar / photoshoot held in Austin by Houston-based advertising photographer Robert Seale. The seminar is an all-day event targeted at professional photographers, entitled "Thriving in Uncertain Photographic Times," and is being put on by photoshelter.com. Please take a minute to look at the event agenda, and see a sampling of Robert's spectacular photography. Did we mention that it's completely sold out?! Imagine Michael in a photo shoot in front of 150 photographers...
In case you missed the live TV performance on Fox 7 Austin's "Good Day Austin" show, it's been archived here. We apologize in advance for the sound quality!
As an advocate of the arts, one of Michael's goals is universal design. This concept is to make art accessible to all people. More on this in future newsletters... In order to become proficient at universal design, it is necessary to heighten the senses to their fullest potential - sight, hearing, smell, touch, taste, balance, temperature, pain, direction, time, proprioreception, intuition. I've written much music musing on the nature of light, and visual art on the stage is a major creative outlet for Creature Rock. The reason I love doing all sorts of creative work, is because it allows alternative access to expression to the senses, outside of music.
I'm very supportive of people learning how images are created, and how light works. In reality, humans can handle and achieve much more than our default senses. We must master the most accessible senses, and then others will be revealed - new dimensions with which to experience the universe. Already, many women would argue that they can sense phases of the moon. Twins regularly defy time and space, as if macroscopically quantum entangled. And many animals, and a few astute people, can sense a person's character.
Create a Masterpiece with your life! -----

Hello beautiful people!
A musical experience is a unifying experience. We are rhythmic creatures, from the beat of our hearts to the fundamental patterns we live by. It is essential to give ourselves the opportunity to be in a place where rhythm and melody were created to exalt the feeling of freedom and passion in you. Climactic sonic messages to carry your vision higher and transcend limited perspective with the birds! You are valuable! You are valuable to us!
Halloween is the birthday of one James Ichabod Harwood, drummer extraordinaire. Creatures everywhere traditionally come together to celebrate this glorious event, and accordingly, we marched with the 
We're playing with Fifth Nation and our performance is going to tear the very fabric of space and time. And you know how the creatures love their costumes! This show is also the triumphant return of dancing comet Emily Boykin. The Creature, the Comet, The Ichabod... OH MY! Oh My! Music that is!
