First of a four part short series of films in which I explore and confirm the genius of our own insight and intuition. When we connect with our inner resources, we feel happier and we come up with great ideas.
Perceval is trained in knightly skills by Sir Gornemant, then meets his sweetheart, Blanchefleur.
The 5th Part of Perceval and the Grail is now on YouTube, called Sir Gornemant's Advice.
In all, there are 15 sound files, and which means there will be 15 parts, and so I am now one third through! A lot of work, but its fun and the story is worth it. Diana I use photos that myself or my family have taken over the years, plus wiki commons images, and combine these with photos of toy figurines. The figurine photos are then Photoshopped. The 'action' takes place on a diorama, whose scenes I change from forest, to Arthur's court, to battle scene etc,
using scraps of cloth, hedge trimmings from my garden and other miscellaneous bits and pieces. It's a lot of work, and a lot of fun. And it all takes place in my front room! Enjoy this magical story ... Diamond Cutters edited by Andrew Harvey and Jay Ramsay now available from Tayen Lane Publishing of California. Andrew Harvey is author of 30 books including 'A Journey in Ladakh' and 'The Celebration of Rumi' and founder/director of the Institute of Sacred Activism) and my good friend and colleague poet Jay Ramsay (author of 35 books,most recent poetry collection, 'Monuments' from Waterloo Press, UK; poetry editor 'Caduceus' magazine). 'Diamond Cutters' brings together the work of 42 English and American visionary poets (including some of mine), not all of them still living. Some of the better known names are Robert Bly, David Gascoyne,Kathleen Raine. All of them write poetry that, in Jay's words: "stands against the compromise of our authentic selves ..and joins our refusal to be inauthentic which is the mass movement of our time, refined in the form that Andrew has named .. as 'sacred activism'. The real poetry of our time is just that, written and lived." 'Diamond Cutters' is available on Amazon, from my website or from the publishers. The second part of Perceval and the Grail is now available on YouTube
The first part of the evocative audio-book of 'Perceval and the Grail', (available as CD/download from CD Baby ) now has visuals and is on YouTube. You can view the 'Morgana's Retelling' here:
