RESOURCES Archives of THE WEST Episode One (to 1806) ... Links THE INDIAN GHOST DANCE AND WAR Barracks Ballad by Pvt. W. H. Prather, an African-American member of the Ninth Cavalry. Composed and popular among the troops during the "Sioux Outbreak" campaign of 1890. The Red Skins left their Agency, the Soldiers left their Post, All on the strength of an Indian tale about Messiah's ghost Got up by savage chieftains to lead their tribes astray; But Uncle Sam wouldn't have it so, for he ain't built that way. They swore that this Messiah came to them in visions sleep, And promised to restore their game and Buffalos a heap, So they must start a big ghost dance, then all would join their land, And may be so we lead the way into the great Bad Land. Chorus: They claimed the shirt Messiah gave, no bullet could go through, But when the Soldiers fired at them they saw this was not true. The Medicine man supplied them with their great Messiah's grace, And he, too, pulled his freight and swore the 7th hard to face. About their tents the Soldiers stood, awaiting one and all

HOME ƒŠƒ“ƒN SIC The Deep Freeze Artist By Liz Tennant Picture the scene. I'm standing in the Oda-shi slaughterhouse, on a cliff high above the Sea of Japan, wearing a Formula 1 racing suit and Wellington boots, holding a basin underneath a dying, dangling pig to catch its lifeblood. How did I get there? It's my little sister's doing. For the past three months, Cate has been filming mini-documentaries, on myriad topics weird and wonderful, for the Australian TV programme, 'Race Around the World.' Passionate tango dancers in Argentina, the royal, baby, white elephants in Thailand, and now in Japan, an avant-garde artist who makes ice statues out of almost anything that can be frozen: including pigs blood. Daiki Wakachi is an enigmatic man with fluid ideas and a walk-in deep freeze. He makes moulds of people- friends, strangers, and fills them with coloured water, egg yolks, ball bearings, gore, before freezing them into perfect icy replicas of his models. At his exhibitions, these statues slowly melt in mesmerizing, unexpected ways (and leave the most incredible puddles.) At his last show in Tokyo, he placed frozen Nihonjin with Gaikokujin and let them dissolve into each other. It's a powerful effect. Cate wanted to film the entire process- from collecting the blood to watching a statue melt in majestic isolation in a paddy field. And, adventurous spirit that she is, she wanted to be the model, posing as a Buddha. (She was briefly worried about blasphemy but only briefly.)

Chinese Dance Dance Ensemble Indian Dance Ilsa Tari Dance Synergy Dance BLAST! NUS Indian Dance Formed in 1977, the NUS Indian Dance has since attained greater heights under the guidance of its tutor/choreographer, Santha Bhaskar, a pioneer in the Indian Cultural dance scene and a Cultural Medallion winner of Singapore. The group performs mainly Bharata Natyam - the most ancient classical form. Bharata Natyam focuses on the graceful manner and symmetry of the movements, traits that characterise Indian dance as elegant and unfolds the richness of Indian art and culture. NUS Indian Dance also explores dance fusions with other dance forms and music. It has performed at the 1997 ASEAN Universities Arts Festivals held in Brunei, and has appeared at official university events, cultural exchange events, and international conferences such as: 8th ASEAN University Games (1994) The High Performance Computing Conference (1994) The Opening Ceremony of International Society for Laser in Dentistry Congress (1994) Inaugural Beatty Alumni Dinner and Dance (1995) 10th International Conference on Solid State Ionics Banquet (2000) National Heritage Board Festival at Fort Canning Park (2001) SSA Peace Carnival "Project H2O" Concert at the Singapore Indoor Stadium (2001)

Bollywood Bollywood or "filmi" dancing is less rigorous than Bharat Natyam, with the emphasis on seductive moves to the rhythms of Indian soundtrack music. In this workshop, we will explore some of the commonly seen moves found in Hindi cinema, learn how to play the role of a hero or heroine, and work through some choreographed ensemble dance routines. There will also be a chance to put together some moves of your own. Bollywood is fun, lively, and provides superb conditioning for the hip area! Teacher Lise Smith was recently cast as a dancer in a genuine Hindi movie. She is currently researching a PhD in early 20th century Hindi literature, but this has not discouraged a long-standing interest in late 20th-century Hindi cinema. There are some important sociological arguments to be made from serious film study, but mostly Lise just likes the choreography of Farah Khan. You'll be hard-put to find a more enthusiastic introduction to the wonders of Bollywood than you'll get here! Kathak Kathak is a classical dance style originating from North India.

157. WOVOKA: The Paiute Messiah Story of the indian religious leader and the forcible suppression of his Ghost dance. http://www.viewzone.com/wovoka.html

T H E P A I U T E M E S S I A H By Robert A. Toledo "When the Sun died, I went up to Heaven and saw God and all the people who had died a long time ago. God told me to come back and tell my people they must be good and love one another, and not fight, or steal or lie. He gave me this dance to give to my people." W ith these words, spoken by a Paiute rancher named Wovoka to describe a dream he experienced during a full eclipse on New Year's Day of 1889, the Native American Ghost Dance religion came into being. Few people, either Native or white, could have imagined the tragedy which would arise from this new faith within two years of this jolting statement. But while the brief and bloody history of the Ghost Dance has been well documented, the story of its creator remains curiously elusive. Few people have had a more profound effect on Native American history as Wovoka, yet his story has nearly been lost to time. Wovoka was believed to have been born in the year 1854 in the Sierras of Nevada. By the time of his birth, white settlers had already laid stake to the territory and the Paiute nation saw its world degenerate into a state of cheap labor for the white man. While Tavibo's standing as a prophet waned with each new visit to the mountain, Nevada found itself at a unique theological crossroads. The settlers from the east brought Christianity and missionaries of the Catholic and Mormon faiths worked zealously to "save" Native peoples. (Some historians claim that Wovoka briefly practiced the Shaker faith, which enjoyed some degree of popularity in the east since colonial times, but there was also a Native religious movement known as the Shakers from the Puget Sound area of Washington State, which shared similar rituals and prophecies with Ghost Dance. Perhaps there is confusion between the two Shaker movements, though research has not confirmed Wovoka's devotion to either faith.) It was under David Wilson's protection that Wovoka (who was renamed Jack Wilson) became exposed to Christian concepts.

Story Tools BUSINESS TRAVELLER Are you a business person on the go? Click here for stories CITY GUIDES What's on in the world's hotspots? Find out here RELATED Interactive: Have you learnt to dance for biz trips? Have your say. (CNN) One of the greatest fears for Indian executives on a trip overseas is not the client meetings but being asked to strut their stuff on a nightclub floor after office hours. But now western dance has become a hit as bosses learn to cha-cha-cha in anticipation for that awkward moment on the dance floor. "I have a group who are business people. Basically they have no rhythm. I am teaching them not to feel embarrassed," dance instructor Farokh Irani told CNN. From Pune to Hyderabad, western dance studios are springing up to cater for growing interest from jet-setting executives who would rather get down to some moves than sit out the grooves. "We get call center people, directors, top executives and they all want to learn to dance for that social gathering," teacher Prassana Kumar told CNN.

var cm_role = "live" var cm_host = "angelfire.lycos.com" var cm_taxid = "/memberembedded" APAI - Organizational History Long-Term Goals and Objectives Program History Mission Statement ... Reviews Organizational History The Association of Performing Arts of India (APAI) is a 50l(c)(3) non-profit organization located in Pembroke Pines, Florida . APAI was founded in 1998 to preserve and promote ancient Indian Classical Music and Dance. Indian music, despite much evolution and development maintains many of its original characteristics and has been preserved in an unbroken tradition for many millennia. It is based on a profoundly spiritual philosophy, and to this day it is a spiritual art form. It is also the oldest written music in the world. The first evidence of written music, i.e. musical notes, comes from the Vedas , Indian sacred documents written more than 4000 years ago. Inspite of such a rich heritage, Indian music, particularly Indian classical music, while flourishing in India, is still little known in the rest of the world. The primary purpose of APAI is to present this art in its various modes in the U.S. The secondary purpose is to educate the South Florida community, young and old, about Indian music and dance through lecture-demonstrations, classes and concerts. Approximately 100,000 people of Indian or Indian/Caribbean origin reside in South Florida. Many of these have a strong interest in their cultural heritage. Also, many westerners have a growing interest in multicultures and world music. Our work is a pioneering effort that we hope will lead to enriching the cultural scope of all residents of Southern Florida.
