Aphrodesia http://aphrodesia.org/
"Aphrodesia's irresistible blend of female vocals, relentless African-inspired rhythms and monstrous horns has already blasted around the world from San Francisco to West Africa, where they became the first American band ever to play Fela Kuti's famed Shrine nightclub in Lagos, Nigeria. Travelling the country in a biodiesel-fueled bus since 2004, the band's uncompromising blend of music, progressive politics and environmentalism continues to inspire."

The work of the collective is grounded in the ancient ways of women's wisdom and currently offers an opportunity to experience this potent medicine through the form of a live experimental fusion of hip-hop and world influenced music. In collaboration with many artists and collectives, the sounds of the Goddess Alchemy Project are eclectic, innovating and integrating an array of styles, from underground urban old-skool sounds, to fresh open source soul floetics. This project fuses mediums such as music, visual art, spoken word poetry and dance to bring sacred intention to the forefront of artistic momentum.

Mystic Family Circus http://www.mysticfamilycircus.com/
Mystic Family Circus (MFC) is a non-profit multi-cultural collective of over 400 performers, artists, visionaries, and educators. Our mission is to activate a conscious, peaceful, and sustainable culture through performing arts, community building, creative expression, and education.

Alchemimicry is a performance ritual about the alchemy of turning our deepest fears and limitations into light and empowerment. It’s about transformation at a personal level and societal level: of how to embrace our fears on a planetary level (global warming/mass extinction, etc.) and find solutions through community. It’s about creating the world we dream... letting what we don't want from the old world die away and striving to keep what we do want (the species that our dying, friendship, love, etc.). It’s about inspiring audiences to realize that they are the imaginal cells of the gluttonous caterpillar of society coming together to totally liquefy what doesn't work (the cocoon stage) and be the visionaries for a new beautiful world (the butterfly). It’s recognizing and accepting that we’re going through contractions now, but that we’re choosing a new world based on love, health, and harmony. It's about our species evolving. Conscious evolution.
