A Little Blip in our Programming…
March 30, 2012
Well… rats… 170 videos on http://zenvlog.com no longer working with my Vlogging tool Zen Mix – http://zenmix.com. The videos are hosted on Blip.tv and now Blip has changed their policy and their server code to not let other players but their own play the videos. I suppose I can move them over to YouTube – but YouTube does not easily expose the source – I have to set up a tunnel on my server. Any other suggestions for Video hosting where you get the URL to the file?

Psychedelic Dancing as Exercise – the Hands!

Click the View Vlog link or the picture above to see the Zen Mix. Here we look at the hand movements in psychedelic dancing. Move the hands as if you are conducting energy – or at the mercy of the forces of groovity! The easing and spreading of fingers in constant flow of 3D space is good for the carpal tunnel and median nerve. At the same time the hands can be alluring to your partner or partners! Entice, tell a story – HYPNOTIZE!
This Zen Mix video is superimposed on a node globe picture showing growth towards energy – like a tree! See Nodism for more information. Made with Zen Mix – http://www.zenmix.com

Click the View Vlog link or the picture above to see the Zen Mix. A simple overexposure dancing against the curtains created this sci-fi effect – I liked when it went out of focus near the end – would probably do more like that next time. A Focuso Curta is in the background. The song is by AIR – I had a few visions with respect to some AIR songs – this was not quite it but I think I could get the effect given some female dancers… Made with Zen Mix – http://www.zenmix.com
For years, Inventor Dan Zen has been doing psychedelic dancing as exercise and encourages everyone to try it out. As you watch any of the psychedelic dancing videos below – get up out of your seat and give it a go – and then – hey, start your own Woodstock!
Psychedelic dancing is a free-form flow of fingers, arms, head and trunk of body with a swaying of the legs and a gyration of the hips. It is great for pumping air through the lungs and stretching in a creative manner. As such, if you are finding your Thai Chi a little repetitive and want more cardio than Yoga… give it a whirl. It is easier to do than belly dancing and it gives you expressive freedom.
We hope that Ang Lee’s Taking Woodstock movie has some wild dancing scenes – and mood and freedom meme the youth of the day.
Here are the sets through the last year or two… enjoy! And get out of your seat!

Psychedelic Dancing Out-take Surfaces due to Reposting of Videos
January 10, 2009
I just happened to want to do some psychedelic dancing as exercise and looked up psychedelic dancing on google. And as has been for the last couple years… there Dan Zen is as the number one psychedelic dancer in the world!
So I clicked on the link and noticed almost right away that the video in the Zen Mix was not the usual video for the very first episode of Psychedelic Dancing as Exercise.
Back a while ago I had to re-upload over 7o videos to Blip.tv when Vimeo stopped supporting the flv.
Well it turns out that in the video I uploaded there is a major calamity part way through – have a look to see what I mean! And here it is showing up in most watched top google search! I hope to show the people the wonderful healing powers of psychedelic dancing as exercise and how it is so good for the muscles because you ease and flow rather than snap and pound them and then this happens!

Psychedelic dancing as exercise set to the psychedelic filming of sixties album covers in high exposure darkness. This features a Zen Mix on top of a Zen Mix. You can replace the image field with a swf in this case another Zen Mix of background video on a blank picture. You can use the file links at the bottom of the mix to see what I mean.
Caribou is playing the feature song. They have a couple more I’d like to dance to too and there was a good one a while back. They are from Dundas – as am I. They are currnet – I think this song came from their album before their last one currently.
We talk about getting down in this mash of mixes. It would be a cooler world if everyone with headphones on got down as they walked along the sidewalk and halls instead of walking like a zombie. Well okay… walking like a real zombie has a bit of getting down involved in it.
Give it a go! And if you want – make a parody – anything – try out Zen Mix. This was done in an hour on a canon $160 point and shoot. It is what you shoot and then the blend modes in Zen Mix – the free online vlogging tool at http://www.zenmix.com
Enjoy!
