Thanks to Jules Stanley at UCY.TV for her on-going brilliant alternative-media work, and to Oakhurst, California musician/flute maker Stephen DeRuby, who gave me permission to use his wonderful cd 'Sacred Spaces' in this experiment in 'non-verbal talk radio.'

On this cd, Stephen played all the instruments himself. This particular cd, as he recorded it, not as you are hearing it now!, has been my favourite and most-listen-to cd over the whole past year. There's something really special, mystical, transcendental, and peaceful about this music. I have layered in the songs of hump-back whales, as well as numerous bird songs and calls from Australia and New Zealand. I don't know, some people might think that these sounds 'get in the way' of the music, but I actually love listening to this project, in which I have given almost equal emphasis or priority to the music and to the bird and whale songs, which is symbolic of my feelings that mitakuye oyasin, 'all my relations', are in fact of equal importance to humans in the grand scheme.

What you are hearing here is in some ways a precursor to aspects of the sound-track I am working on for my 'beyond film' on the whales and dolphins.  Watch the trailer here
