The whispers in the attic.


The whispers in the attic are high above our heads, with the larks and angry ravens, dipped wings from white to black. 

They won't hear you, be calm. They hear you call the storm. They hear you make your statement with a thunderous clout, forlorn. 

But it wasn't. It wasn't heard. And all those whisperings of needles and pins like hundreds of sparrows wings, beating fast and spreading, splaying legs, plucked and shedding. 

Whispers whisper slowly, they sneak over and crawling, sprawling and bawling over rooftops from the attic, spilling out through black nights, crows pecking at  moon light. 

Squawking, singing, tripping, so giddy, to the ears of hidden privy. To tumble the word, the whisper it's golden. 

To spoil it would be rotten, but lest it is forgotten, that whispers are unspoken, 'cept in the rooftops of attics, where they're practically sycophantic. 

And some will seep and ooze, like a deep slumbering snooze, filling the rooftops like thick soup, reminiscent of halitosis, the stench of wrong whispers, twitching cats whiskers, tapping paws upon the skylines, whispers upon whiskers.

Get stolen, be taken by the whispers so mistaken, from the bird twitterings of stench, from wench upon wench.

How Rotterdam Went...

I've gone and stolen his blog post again, partly because I'm being extraordinarily lazy and also because I'm going to yoga in thirty five minutes and if I get stuck into writing a blog post, I will naturally be late...as I often am... So from hereon, it's him... 

Swiss Family Phizmiz performance of "UOEIA", favola in jodel, at Operadagen Rotterdam, 2013. A commission of DePlayer, part of the evening "That Global Glottis". 


Two different cameras, both slightly incomplete. You can piece the whole thing together in your head by seeing both. If you're so inclined.


Fragments, or most of, of "UOEIA" from the camera of DePlayer's lovely Koos. 






Most of "UOEIA". Filmed and edited to fit Youtube by bart plantenga , author of the books "Yodel in Hi-Fi" and "Yodel-Ay-Ee-Ooo", from which this operina takes it's theme and inspiration.






You can watch more from yodelling event That Global Glottis at bart plantenga's Youtube playlist, including Andrea Wittchen, Phil Minton, Danibal, Myriam van Imschoot, and Kutzekelina.



Photographs by Martha Moopette (mostly). Swiss Family Phizmiz adventure.


















That's it then...

Bisous.

Photographs of GARGANTUA by Rebecca Vaughan

The post below is taken from the Gargantua blog, but I had to share these photos.

Rebecca Vaughan kindly popped in and took these rather tasty photos of GARGANTUA: An Excessive Entertainment by Ergo Phizmiz & Friends. Many thanks. Delicious.

I bought some coloured lampshades. We now live in an orange room.

Mary came for Christmas and rang relatives to let them know Jesus had arrived...

I had a birthday and ate lemon meringue & discovered no one else in my house liked it

Roo was a blue Dragon for NYE

And Talulah a Pussy Cat

Made a spinning sheep mobile for the video projection for Gargantua

The Wolf Mask Template I made for Gargantua that ended up breaking!

There's loads of other things going on as usual. Lots of making for Gargantua. Lots of exercise. Lots of snotty noses and lots of being ill. Nice.

Do check out the Gargantua blog here for an up to date progress of the project and team.

Hope you're all jolly and well. Can't wait for gloomy rainy January to be over.

How's your January been?
