Bill
Thanks for your response. I have found that a good number of people have
given a similar response. That creative endeavors create a childlike abandon
and mindset. I would like to see that house some time if its still around.
Also are you capable of visualizing events with extreme clarity ? This is
how I work on new performance materiel. I recently worked out a totally
surrounded vertical levitation to be done in street performance venues .The
only problem is that at times it causes vertigo in the person levitating and
that just is not a desirable sensation to subject a audience volunteer to.
It was a outgrowth of a idea to levitate a large stone block. But people are
more readily available than sofa size pieces of stone.
Well thank you again for your response......Jim
