"Tumbleweed rolling by / Catch the dust up in your eye Saddle up the gray and ride out"
Donna the Buffalo
Let us be like
Two falling stars in the day sky.
Let no one know of our sublime beauty
as we hold hands with God
and burn
Into a sacred existence that defies-
That surpasses
Every description of ecstasy
And love.

The Path is an immersive project based around the exquisite corpse concept sometimes used by the Surrealists. Essentially, each chosen artist adds to a composition in sequence. Eight artists were invited to stand upon one of eight different coloured boxes I had set up. Once all had chosen a box to stand on, a chart was rezzed which listed the order of colours which would hten dictate the sequence of artists to compose the scenes for a narrative.
So if red was the first colour on the chart, then the artist standing on the red cube would begin the narrative. If blue were next then the artist on the blue cube would continue the story after red had passed their part on to them.
The artist who goes first composes a short start to a story. They then pass on this segment to the artist who is next on the list. That artist would then write up a continuation of the narrative and pass it on to the third artist. This would continue until reaching the eighth and final artist.
This was the random order of artists:
1-Bryn Oh
2-Colin Fizgig
3-Marcus Inkpen
4-Desdemona Enfield / Douglas Story
5-Maya Paris
6-Claudia222 Jewell
7-Scottius Polke
8-Rose Borchovski
I would like to thank all the artists involved for working so hard on this project and in such a professional manner.
They created a truly brilliant experience for me and hopefully for all the guests as well.

Running along a bank, a parapet
That saves from the precipitous wood below
The level road, there is a path. It serves
Children for looking down the long smooth steep,
Between the legs of beech and yew, to where
A fallen tree checks the sight: while men and women
Content themselves with the road and what they see
Over the bank, and what the children tell.
The path, winding like silver, trickles on,
Bordered and even invaded by thinnest moss
That tries to cover roots and crumbling chalk
With gold, olive, and emerald, but in vain.
The children wear it. They have flattened the bank
On top, and silvered it between the moss
With the current of their feet, year after year.
But the road is houseless, and leads not to school.
To see a child is rare there, and the eye
Has but the road, the wood that overhangs
And underyawns it, and the path that looks
As if it led on to some legendary
Or fancied place where men have wished to go
And stay; till, sudden, it ends where the wood ends.

When asked, I said in a matter of fact tone,
We have known each other before time. We ran with the pirates as children, then sought asylum in the monasteries, only to find that we were to be trained as ninjas. Though we didn’t expect it, we went with what was given to us, as we were young and eager to learn. We have found ourselves stranded in the mountains, buried at sea, and running face to face with the Huns. Either way, we maintained connection, retained clarity, and prevailed. The odds seemed to be against us, to try our strength and devotion, but in the deeper sense, it was god’s way of having fun with us, as such bonds cannot be broken. So is the way of our path in this unstable world.
There was a long pause, then they asked, “How long ago was this?”
The quarry of Pūkao.
Some 58 Moai (statues) of the 164 that were once raised on an Ahu (platform) received a crown or headdress of red volcanic scoria which was called a Pukao. These were carved between the years 1250 and 1500 and probably represent a hair style, tied up like a bun, which was a common Rapa Nui usage. The red color is symbolic of that which is sacred and of the high rank associated with those persons with Mana, a supernatural power which emanates from the ancestors.
Puna Pau is within the crater of Maunga Vai-o-Hao, an extinct volcano. One third of the crater was utilized in the production of Pukao, which could reach up to 11 tons in weight. To date, more than 70 headdresses have been located, some on the ceremonial platforms and some abandoned en route to their platforms. Many more may have been broken up and then incorporated into those same platforms. On one side of Puna Pau, a road was discovered which was used to transport the Pukao. They were most probably pushed or rolled by hand, although it is also possible that wooden trunks were used. All indications are that there were several different teams which worked in the quarry and competed to hold on to their own production areas within Puna Pau, just as in the quarry of the Moai on Rano Raraku.

Unfortunately for me, just as I was getting into the swing of things the power went out in RL ...I hope to return in the next day or so to finish exploring
