Announced, London, 24th August 2010 - Immersion 2012 - Global Dance Event
alan macmillan orr, author of the natural mind - waking up, following on from his "remix" of the original work into three books released under "authors" created from an anagram of alan's name, and photographed in various disguises to challenge perception, has announced his intention to remix the book into 200 short film clips and dance tracks to differently express the concepts in each topic. That means 200 topics from anger to war rexpressed sonically, and visually without recourse to the printed word.
"Converting philosophy to living energy - from the human word to the universal vibration"
The resulting work will be introduced as an immersion performance where the "reader" engages with the work by becoming part of it, through the medium of a dance music event. The location of the event has not been decided but it will take place on the 21st December 2012 and will be webcast globally into participating venues.
As with all alan's projects immersion 2012 will evolve in collaboration with others...

It has been confirmed that the solar cooking project has been approved and will commence this summer. The philosophy behind this project is simple. Why use a gas, charcoal, or electric cooker for everything when you can make beautiful food for free, courtesty of that magnificent ball of fire in the sky - the sun. Our project aims are threefold, (a) to launch a schools science project in the west to build solar cookers, and try to design more efficient cookers, whilst involving the parents, (b) to partner with other solar cooking organisations to raise money to build kits and distribute them to people in need, and (c) to develop a worldwide Solar cooking Day.
