Anyone know if this is still going ahead?



Edit: It is - and here's the blurb!

Synergy - once again - 28.2.2004 - SeOne - London Bridge



the main dance spirit room

curated by IDSpiral and Liquid Connective



Buddha Fingaz (Baraka)

Liquid Elf (https://www.LiquidConnective.org)

MaFaiza (https://www.mafaiza.com)

Liquid Ross (https://www.LiquidConnective.org)

Chameleon (https://www.IDSpiral.org)



The tone for the night is set to be distinctively positive, uplifting and light – in tune with Synergy’s overall message and intent. Major improvements have been made on the Sound System which should now sound fuller than ever.



Extra performances will be brought to you by Billy Thompson (https://www.billythompson.co.uk) the incredible violinist, John Crow on shamanic rap and mick from the land of poi (https://www.land-of-poi.freeuk.com).



Visually the room will be a meltdown of psychedelic colours and swirls, a combination of the ingenious Lightmotiv from Germany (https://www.lightmotiv.de - really worth checking out) as well as our friends from inside us all (https://www.inside-us-all.com). Expect something different.



All this is framed by deco art from Liquid Drops, IDSpiral, Mr Rossi and Skymermaid - to create a truly magical and connecting experience.



The Healing Chill this time will be brought to you by the Small World Stage who will be weaving their magic with a truly diverse healing space: Divine Order



In full acoustic flavour we will indulge in:

Pinknruby Enchanting and truly beautiful duet

Carrie Tree Soft innocence and beauty all in a voice

Martha Tilston Mesmerising songstress of Mouse fame

Fantazmagoria Gypsy waltz ska cabaret



DJ's spinning their tunes will be



Tehomas playing Arabic and global soundscapes

Greg Playing Ambient to classical

Pony playing dub world and nu-folk



The Healing Space has the following treatments to offer:



Ayurvedic massage

Aromatherapie Massage

Thai yoga massage

Chair Massage (Backwork)

Reiki Healing

Medical Qigong

Deep Tissue & Sports Massage



This time round we are also launching the Eclectic Dance Floor – breaking down the mono-culture with a refreshingly cross-cultural, cross-factional mix of global breaks, Old-Skool tunes, psy-funk-latin grooves and roots& reggae from :



Greg Hunter (Alien Soap Opera) (tbc) The return of the master world-dance fusion producer.

Carlo (Sixth Sense)

Steve Indigenous (Indigenous People)

Precious - much anticipated audio-visual set from the RGB Maestro.



Surround screen conscious projections from Revelation GoGo Broadcasting, Oxfam Dan & Mr Magoo.



Organic and whole-food sumptuousness from the New Worlds Café.





The 491 gallery space



is presenting a welcoming space expanding the horizons of traditional exhibition arenas. This time they will feature the Vertigo Film Club intermingled with chilled DJ vibes courtesy of Stefan, Sy and the 491 Gallery.



Interaction is the theme this time and as well as performers mingling with the crowd, you will be encouraging to get involved on all levels ˆ chalk drawing, painting, playing games, making wishes for the wishing tree and most of all, having fun!



The art comes from a variety of sources and styles, but rest assured you won‚t have seen any in this space before.



Come and sit in the art installation (on censorship) and enjoy herbal and vegan refreshment from the magical ID Spiral café.



The entrance area will once again be transformed into a friendly and all embracing welcoming zone with our unique chacra altar installation.



Rhythms of Resistance will be leading a number of processions throughout the venue –come early to catch it all - you never know what else will happen in the magic of the moment.



Stalls and Info- Displays

Oxfam, Survival, Tourism Concern, Actionaid, Rising Tide, Speak Network, The Institute for Science and Society, War on Want, Campaign Against The Arms Trade, Rubba Luvva



Synergy is a participatory community of artists, technicians, healers, promoters, cooks, activists and more. As ever, we are keen to welcome new people, sharing the sense of empowerment and purpose of doing something, however, small and occasional, to make a difference.

ooooh - that sounds good too, but a bit far away. One of the good things about London Bridge is that I can slip home on a nightbus straight home if I start getting weary. Hmmmm.



Then again... Drome massage ubblove

Indeed, it was a lovely night. Memories of the wanderings of a Samba band; Malcolm doing truly insane juggling, magic Matt doing his ultra tiny juggling patterns; monkey poi moves (and from afar seeing monkey man doing some insane air-wraps with pirouettes); and an incredibly tall Kiwi girl trying to figure out how to get the plastic wrapper off sweets wink

So, indeed a magnificent night. Roll on the next one!

my very short review is[Old link]

and it says
Quote:

i was playing with other peoples aerotech socks at synergy eek
three different pairs and they were all lovely biggrin




Doms: big orange socks with his orange\red balls in. Gorgeous, but strangely heavy.

9.3 out of ten

Drews: smaller uv white socks with erm single colour balls, can't remember colours.
They were awesome and the best glo equipment i've ever used. They are only marginally less nice to use than my practice socks, which are the best poi in the world ever.

9.87 out of ten

Brodies: Yellow blues in black tights type stuff. Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous but static airwraps are really hard with them (as opposed to hyperloops from one side to other)

9.2 out of ten

i had a fun poi night in extremis smile smile smile

oh Rob! those pireouette airwraps are cool, but doing it with isolated poi and no tangle is actually harder, and feels like it should be prettier when clean.

Had a little go with Anna's UV aerotech's and under my jumper them looked OK, but the Aerotech's don't really seem to throw out a lot of UV light.

if you were really set on socks that glow uv from the inside, on request aerotech will make balls with 0% diffusion.

clear aerotechs smile

unfortunately they cost the same as regular aerotechs and although they'll throw out a lot more uv light, it will be patchy unless you have a good way of diffusing it inside the sock.
