  • AVANT Volume III, Number 1/2012 187
    AVANT Volume III, Number 1/2012 www.avant.edu.pl/en 187 188 Studies on Musical Practice Matthew Shipp by Phil Freeman I’ve written about Matt Shipp almost annually for over a decade. I’ve reviewed his albums, interviewed him, profiled him at length in Burning Ambulance magazine, and discussed the work of other musicians with him in person, on the phone, and by email. I am not an objective observer when it comes to Matt Shipp or his work. I consider him a friend. Despite this blurring of the line between critical appreciation and personal friend- liness, I think it’s safe to say that Matt’s doing the best work of his career right now, that his voice on the piano has matured into something powerful, unique, and al- most instantly recognizable. He even manages to make the piano trio sound inter- esting, something I might otherwise have argued was impossible in 2012. Matt’s most recent trio album, Elastic Aspects , is a perfect example of how he’s breaking the rules governing the jazz piano trio while still creating music of great, and accessible, beauty. He grants a tremendous amount of space to bassist Michael Bisio; indeed, there are times when the piano is almost totally absent, when it’s just bass, or just bass and drums, and yet the music retains the feeling of suspense, of continuous forward movement and multiple co-participants’ simultaneous concen- tration on a single shared idea that is the heart of jazz. He has long abandoned many of the clichés of the avant-garde, having arrived at a sound that is far more indebted to post-bebop piano players of the 1950s and early 1960s than to so-called free players of the ’60s and beyond like Cecil Taylor, Bobby Few or Dave Burrell, though he’ll happily praise those men, too.

  • The Temple of Quetzalcoatl and the Cult of Sacred War at Teotihuacan
    CHAPTER 7 TheTempleofQuetzalcoatlandthe Cultof Sacred Warat Teotihuacan The Temple of Quetzalcoatl at Teotihuacan has been the source of startling archaeological discoveries since the early portion of this century. Beginning in 1918, excavations by Manuel Gamio revealed an elaborate and beautifully preserved facade underlying later construc- tion. Although excavations were performed intermittently during the subsequent decades, some of the most important discoveries have occurred during the last several years. Recent investigations have revealed mass dedicatory burials in the foundations of the Temple of Quetzalcoatl (Sugiyama 1989a; Cabrera Castro et al. 1988); at the time of this writing, more than eighty individuals have been discovered interred in the foundations of the pyramid. Sugiyama (1989a) persuasively argues that many of the individuals appear to be either war- riors or dressed in the office of war. The archaeological investigations by Cabrera, Sugiyama, and Cowgill are ongoing, and to comment extensively on the implications of their work would be both premature and presumptuous. Nonetheless, the recent excavations have placed an entirely new light on the significance of the Temple of Quetzalcoatl and its remarkable sculptural format. In this study, I will be concerned with the iconographic meaning of the Temple of Quetzalcoatl facade. In recent work, I noted that the temple facade represents serpents passing through a facade of circular mirrors (Taube 1986, 1988e). Two forms of serpents are present, Quetzalcoatl and an ancestral form of the Xiuhcoatl. In this respect, the Temple of Quetzalcoatl facade may be compared to the Postclassic wind temple of Ehecatl-Quetzalcoatl, which also appears To cite this chapter: with mirrors and serpents (Taube 1986).

In spite of this Received in revised form: privileged astral position, homo gravitas is experiencing trouble with its own life at 6 May 2018; home, on the earth and behaves cruelly to its environment. This paper brings proof that Accepted: 17 May 2018; all trouble is due to some disconnections occurring with its gravitational and energetic ties. Some of the damage lasts for a long time, but most has been produced during the Keywords former cultures. Those disconnections disturb what Paracelsus called the inner harmony Awareness, of humans and psychic disorders result. They disclose the existing conflicts between the Balance, body and the mind. It was evaluated that 25% of total population is seriously affected by Disconnection, the disease called here schizophrenia astralis. It is not an infecting disease, but its danger Identity, increases with population growth. By raising awareness and eliminating its causes with Inner-harmony, equanimity, schizophrenia astralis can be eradicated before it is too late. Then, with a Mutual-attraction, well-balanced body-mind couple, homo gravitas automatically becomes homo astralis. Schizophrenia-astralis. Anyway, there is no longer need to emigrate on other planets or meet aliens.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.
