I am so enjoying this interview and can relate on many levels: spent time outside the U.S. in childhood, college/grad school in the 90s, thesis about HD and Jung when everything in academia was poststructural, career in social justice/education, about turn during the pandemic and astrology/poetry came alive. Love the “language of birds” reference and very much appreciate your translations of the hymns!
After hearing your description of Orpheus' head singing upon the shore, i cannot help but remember wearing out this cd of the opera Dido and Aneas. Jessye perfect for this role androgynous, and refulgent. Did the producers and set designers, not channel something of this legend? i wonder....Enjoy <3
Brava, Beautiful, Inspiring! Everything i've been articling about the past few years directly or within the undercurrents of your fantastic discussion. If art imitates life, they say, haven't the psychopomps and cults of personality emerged in this our era of Orphic hymns, the Theogeny...the Gita. The language carries soo many meanings perfectly into the Enlish! and the head keeps singing. i have to have a discussion with you. Please consider, reach out or i'll DM you<3
