Vancouver Chapter of Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) presents:
The Future of Civilization - a Unique Vancouver Perspective
with guest speakers Little Woo and Dolly Hopkins


Each individual soul contributes to the Future of Civilization. As more people become aware of the laws of manifestation, the collective vision can be increasingly focused on what we DO want to create.

Our Guest speakers (Little Woo and Dolly Hopkins) will touch upon examples of individuals and communities (local and abroad), who are actively co-creating such realities. They will list shared values and dreams within the IONS group, to see its collective vision more clearly. Stephan A Schwartz’s project (the 2050 club) will be mentioned as well, a long-term research project that has produced fascinating future projections made by diverse populations around the world since the 1960’s.

The unique Vancouver perspective will focus on Vancouver’s community events that nurture community pride and social cohesion, drawing diverse groups together in a cooperative and collaborative spirit that transcends differences in generation, language, background and opinion.  As an example, the participatory public art engagements are a potent force for community healing and health and directly contribute to increased civic involvement, safer neighborhoods, economic prosperity, reduced isolationism, and enhanced quality of life. An investment in these organizations is an invaluable contribution to the prosperity of our communities, our region, and our province.

Both of these speakers were chosen because they are passionate community activists, generating/empowering energy at the local level which radiates/expands to the larger community.......making connections sometimes on a global scale. The future of civilization depends on the spirit and visions of grass roots groups like the kind that Woo and Dolly have and continue to foster.

Come & be inspired to co-create the realities we want for ourselves & our families in our own communities.

Juicy Danger Meets Burning Man
Film Screening
Q&A with Larry Harvey (Burning Man co-founder) and the Stars of the Juicy Danger film
and a Dance Party!!
at 7 pm, Japanese Hall (487 Alexander St)

To commemorate the 10-year anniversary Special Edition DVD release of David Vaisbord's Juicy Danger Meets Burning Man documentary, Larry Harvey, Executive Producer of Burning Man, will be in Vancouver for an evening of celebration and debauchery on Saturday, May 10, 2008, at the Japanese Hall (487 Alexander St, Vancouver.)

The evening will begin with a screening of this cult classic film and escalate into pure riot and revelry! The after party for this evening features a Burning Man inspired fashion show, Blackberry Wood, Jay Michael and DJ Timothy Wisdom – not to mention food, fire, a mobile boardroom parked outside to settle emergency red tape, celebrity monkies and a giant mechanical mondo spider.

The film Juicy Danger Meets Burning Man is a fascinating look at the lives of two of Canada's most brilliant and dangerous performers, Tom Comet (Circus Orange) and Christine "Tiny" Taylor, who take their act of extreme hazard, buzzin and sparking with chainsaws and flame throwers to Burning Man (www.burningman.com). Seasoned Burners and inquisitive minds alike will marvel at the scene -- filmed at the renegade desert city 10 years ago! In those 10 years, Gemini nominated filmmaker David Vaisbord, creator and producer, has shown this film to seduced audiences via TV Ontario, CTV, and BRAVO! It played to sell out audiences in New York and Chicago, made celebrities out of its two leads -- the hair-raising comedic/thrill-seeking duo Tom Comet and Christine Taylor -- and received the Special Jury Prize at the Yorkton Short Film festival. David Vaisbord, Christine Taylor, Tom Comet (Circus Orange), as well as Larry Harvey and Marian Goodell from Burning Man will be holding the discussion panel following the film and shakin it up with us at the after party.

The event will be presented in two parts:

Part 1: Movie and Panel Discussion
7pm Doors
7:50pm INTRO!
8pm Juicy Danger Meets Burning Man film presentation
9pm-10pm Panel discussion and Q&A with David Vaisbord, Larry Harvey, Tiny Taylor & Tom Comet

Part 2: Schmoozin' & Dance Party
10pm Doors
10:30pm Playa on the Runway :: Fashion Show feat. DJ Jay Michael
11:15pm Blackberry Wood
12:30am burlesque by Little Woo
12:40-2am DJ Timothy Wisdom

Part 1: Film Screening, Discussion and Party: $25 advance, $30 door
Part 2: Party only: $10 advance, $15 door

Tickets to this event are limited and will sell out. Advance tickets are available online at www.JuicyDangerMeetsBurningMan.com  and at Zulu Records (1972 West 4th Ave) and Highlife Records (1317 Commercial Drive).

Guests will be treated to an evening of pure revelry, mischief, stunning media and all night entertainment. View the film that changed the face of the underground, creative community of Vancouver amongst the same colouful and energetic crowd that inspired it. The Japanese Hall will be cleverly disguised as a piece of the "Playa". We have a host of mischief makers plotting the uprising.. . . On visuals: David Rimmer, James Deane and Media Victim. Bid credit also goes to Burn BC, GVIAS and the Inner City Commune -- these folks know how to throw down a party. Cash bar, brilliant art installations, décor, fire shows, food, costumes and clever surprise theatrics all part of the scene. Costumes encouraged. Anything goes.

Indeed, this is more than a DVD release. This is a unique, creative and inclusive community celebration. Get involved with the crew! There are still a few volunteer positions available. Get ahold of Andrea Curtis, the event mama at orangeandorange [at] gmail.com

Parade of Lost Souls
Starts at Grandview Park, Commercial Drive

Events begin at 6:30pm - 9:30pm

Life and Death mix and mingle at the Parade of the Lost Souls, which will be returning on Commercial Drive at Grandview Park.

Parade of the Lost souls is a lively commemoration of the cycle of existence and deceased, and of facing fears in order to live life to its fullest. The performers are the audience, willing spirits who have come together to pay tribute to the departed and to celebrate the brilliance of life. Skeletal Brides, blessed witches, ghastly ghouls, and prancing pixies mingle side by side with everyday people. By the light of the radiant moon, processions of costumed stilt walkers, jugglers, dancers, and musicians lead spectators on an entrancing passageway through the neighborhood.

The evening features shrines, fire performance, supernatural beings, and dancing in the street.

Presenting the debut of Little Woo's latest shadowtheatre piece:
Heart of the Swamp:  
3 show times:  6:40pm, 7:15m and 7:45pm
At Grandview Park, look for the Shadowbox amidst the fairy lights...

We live in a magical world and you are a divine being with infinite creative power. In every moment, you are designing your reality. By knowing consciously about the Laws of Manifestation (aka Laws of Attraction), you can have more fun materializing opportunities, careers, money, things, people, experiences and great joy. In this introductory class, we will cover the key principles and also look at what life is like when we step fully into this new paradigm of being.

Note:  We will hold a potluck style lunch.

When does your heart close?  What wounds do we still carry with us?  How can we heal these precious tender parts?

Compassion, Joy, Understanding, Forgiveness and Unconditional Love... These are some of the Teachings of the Heart.  If we authentically cultivate these vibrations in our daily lives, transformations occur in surprising and inspiring ways.  We can learn to keep our hearts open, fearlessly and with magical results. 

We will practice sensing the subtle movements of the heart chakra.  We will learn to use this perception for self-healing and growth.  You will see it alter your relationship dynamics and your life.

Foremost in level 1, we will focus on the path of Self-Love.  Nurturing a true commitment to Self is a path of honour, non-judgment and bliss.  It is the greatest relationship one can have.
You need not feel alone ever again, if you fall in love with Self.  This is not about Narcissism, it is about the healing that allows you to truly be an instrument of Love.

We will also learn a powerful meditation and healing called  "The Sacred Kiss" that is part of the XOX temple project. 

Join us for 4 weeks of intimacy, healing and expansion...

Alchemy of Manifestation:  Project Class

6 Wednesday Evenings
December 3, 10, 17, January 7, 14, 21 

(no class on December 24, 31)

7:00pm til 9:00pm
Commercial Drive location, Vancouver
Course fee: $130
Early Bird rate is $120 if paid by November 19

Bring on the magic, flow and creative joy!!  In this course, we continue to examine the Laws of Manifestation as we each bravely launch a personal project that is witnessed and supported by the group.  It can be in any form or can simply be a list of things you wish to experience during the session.

Be it the advancement of your career, the transformation of your relationship, the healing of an old wound, the beginning of your dream lifestyle, the creation of a new business or the deepening of your artistic exploration, this project class will be an opportunity to focus on some life goals while being nurtured in a loving garden of like-minded souls.

Applying the spiritual concepts covered in the Fundamentals class (level 1), we will practice what we know in a practical manner during the creation of each participant's project.  (it is recommended to take the Fundamentals course prior to this project class)

The course content is also guided by the specific questions that participants bring up along the course of their unique projects.  As a result, the content of each project class will be different and participants may choose to take this class again at a future date with a different project in mind.

Using a project as the point of focus and experimentation, we can have a clearer understanding of our thought patterns and habitual emotional grooves.  However, the end result of the project is less important than the teachings inherent in the journey.  Along the way, we are training our sensitivity to the energy realm.  We are learning to be more aware of how we are channeling energy in the various areas of our lives. 

Join us as we evolve together in a supportive, loving and playful group setting!

Dr Sketchy’s Gothic XXXmas
An Art School Cabaret
with Guest Model Little Woo

Dr Sketchy’s Anti Art Class is what happens when a simple question is asked:

Why can't figure drawing be sexy?

Part art class, part cabaret, join us for 3 hours of drinking, drawing and decadence! You bring your pencils and paper and we'll bring you the most beautiful, bizarre and outrageous models for your sketching delectation! Think burlesque dancers, drag kings and queens, circus performers and we let you draw them for a whole three hours!

Looking for an antidote to the bright colors of the season? Welcome to the dark side of Christmas.

Grab your pencils, your paper, and perhaps some black eyeliner, and join us at the Jupiter Lounge for Vancouver's legendary burlesque dancer, little woo, for Dr Sketchy's Gothic XXXmas. Class starts at 7pm!

At Jupiter Lounge
1216 Bute Street, Vancouver
7pm-10pm
$10

What is Dr. Sketchys?

Hosted by Shary Contrary, Dr Sketchy Vancouver brings you the most dazzling burlesque dances, the most bizarre circus performers, and the most rippling hunks of boylesque.

From humble beginnings...
Dr Sketchy's Anti-Art School was founded by artist, model, and occasional burlesque performer Molly Crabapple. Tired of the sterile buttoned-up art classes she posed for, Molly envisioned a life-drawing class that was decadent, sexy, with high pay and stellar treatment for models and boozy fun for all.

The Living Vision 2008 Christmas Party

Please join us for good food, sweet singing and the Living Vision Spirit of Christmas!

You are welcome to arrive anytime after 5pm to be part of arranging and to put anything you have for display or sale on tables set up for just that! We are not asking for a contribution for room rental, food or entertainment and instead we are hoping you will be able to support the community of artists and healers by purchasing something if this is possible for you to do at this time - lots of stocking stuffers, hopefully.

Eating will be done buffet-style starting at 6pm - lots of chairs but no tables.

Ronnie Novak's video from Living Vision 2008 will be shown at 7pm (and will be for sale for only $10!). Footage from Living Vision 2007 will be shown as well.

Afterwards, we will sing along with Pepe and Jerry so please bring your music makers! Your guitar, spoons, shakers or just your beautiful voice! After Ms. Julie Blue, you must know you have a beautiful voice, don't you?!! We will provide lyric sheets so no racking of the brains beforehand required.

Little Woo will be giving a Shadow Puppet Fairy Tale performance with the help of Zamir.

at Rhodes Wellness College - 1125 Howe Street at Helmcken
