CONGRATS

------------------
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year....
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep. ~Robert Frost

Thank you, lalalinda!

BTW, I wonder if I've broken a record by becoming a moderator with the least amount of posts ever.

Funny you should ask.

Antonin Artaud

There is in every madman a misunderstood genius,
whose idea, shining in his head, frightened people,
and for whom delirium was the only solution
to the strangulation that life had prepared for him."
~ Antonin Artaud

http://www.antoninartaud.org/home.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonin_Artaud

ANTONIN Artaud's name is associated with a fundamental revolt against insincerity, and especially against insincerity in literature, where the written word corresponds to an attitude or a prejudice. His most cherished dream was to found a new kind of theatre in French which would be, not an artistic spectacle, but a communion between spectators and actors. As in primitive societies it would be a theatre of magic, a mass participation in which the entire culture would find its vitality and its truest expression...

Although Artaud was usually condemnatory of Christianity, he defined the goal of the theater in spiritual terms. Its "sacred" goal, he claimed, is to communicate delirium whereby the spectators will experience trances and inspiration. Dramatic art induces as strong a delirium as a plague does. A true play, according to Artaud's concept, will disturb in the spectator his tranquillity of mind and his senses, and it will liberate his subconscious. Aristotle had emphasized especially the ethical power of the theater. Artaud intends to release its mediumistic force. If the theater is able to exalt man, it will drive him back to the mysterious primitive forces of his being.

The method Artaud proposes by which this will be brought about is to associate the theater with danger and cruelty. "This will bring the demons to the surface," he says. Words spoken on the stage will then have the power they possess in dreams. Language will become an incantation. Here again Artaud draws upon the poetic theory of Mallarmé and Rimbaud. Action will remain the center of the play, but its purpose is to reveal the presence of extraordinary forces in man. The metteur-en-scène becomes a kind of magician, a holy man, in a sense, because he calls to life themes that are not purely human.

Perfect choice! I wrote something yesterday about how "quiet" and peaceful you seem, Nosis, but since I don't know you that well it didn't seem exactly write so I crumpled and tossed it.

Thanks, MysticMelody!

I wish I was internally as peaceful as people seem to perceive my "outwardliness". lol Truth is, I'm just really good at hiding my inner conflict ever since I was a wee lad.

I really enjoy your writing! You have a soulful presence.
