MID- ‘N ’Ž ( ‚‚ 2004)
‚ ‰‚ GOSH-- ƒU žH‚ ƒeƒCƒN twists
–” —” that never fail to SURPRISE us. We think the story is going one way, and "Mirror" takes the reigns,
and says; "We are now going THIS WAY!!"
It takes every ounce of frontal lobes cooperative advanced intelligence energy to stay the track on such a
challenging ADVENTURE. It's not a PRETEND story-- its a REAL story. The pitfalls in exploration are many- entropy black holes, twisting serpent devils ready
to trip you up at every turn. But your forward clicked amygdala FRIENDS keep you on course, and the results
are better than anything you could even make up. After one particularly trying episode, I was ready myself to
hand in the towels. My cast and crew wouldn't let me! See the great bunch of Brain Explorers I'm talking about below.
The
film progresses steadily....Getting into fall, we are having a WONDERFUL
time with the daily adventure surrounding the process of making AND discovering
this film.
Rather
than a totally scripted out project, we are uncovering and discovering
things about our characters and the story as it unfolds in front of us.
We started with a basic story and outline, and then began the journey of
EXPERIENCING the story as the process of capturing it on film progresses,
almost in real time. It is really very different than the core story that
appears in the Frontal Lobes Supercharge, which was just the kernel
for the idea and this project. Mirror has really ceased to be merely only a
work of fiction, but more a unique melding of story and actual BEING THERE
while things happen, as we witness and delight in unforeseen and magical things happening
before us. Being WITH the film is like stepping into another dimension.
None
of our locations are artificial sets, but rather extraordinary places lying
at our feet- that we are recognizing as what they are, right around us.
Almost like sliding into the parallel universe that occupies the same space
we call "normal" reality.
CAST
Emily
Choi continues to bring something indescribably fantastic to Mirror. She really has a wonderfully different personality and presence that comes
across so well. I am totally serious when I tell
you that literally- people driving by as we shoot exterior scenes pick up
on Emily's aura, and stop their cars in the street to comment upon it
to us.
Rachel
Mor plays Mirror's mom in the
film, and has been friends with me for about ten years. Her daughter Ruti Mor sang in my rock
band The Brain Revolutionaries for a few years, and made an album with me. See Amygdala Brainbites. Ruti recently graduated from Columbia Universtiy
in NYC, but is back in Denver to record something new with me to be used for the soundtrack.
Fred
Poindexter plays various roles in the film. In real
life, he's a guitar
player, fine artist, and landscape architect, and has been my friend for over
twenty years as well. He is really one of the most talented people I believe I
shall ever have the pleasure to know. He has this extraordinary creative ability
and adds a wonderful natural spontaneity to the plot. His stage name is Eric
Vincent, and he plays Mr. Vincent in the film, as well as co-creating the
soundtrack with Neil
Bobby
Reginelli is now an undergraduate student
at CU and he runs the colleges radio station, as well as being a writer for a
nationally syndicated newspaper column. He was originally my guitar student when he went to East High School,
and later on I've hired him many times to help me with my book shipments
after big radio shows. He is the hardest working kid I have ever met in
my life, and I've found him extremely self-motivated and focused. He's
one of the principal sound hands for the project when he's not in front
of the camera. See Fun With Body Putty
Christian
Wells is one of our crew members and his brother Weston took piano and guitar
lessons from me for fourteen
years. Christian works for the city of Denver,
(and Weston is now in NYC perusing a career in film making.)
And WHO is the Watcher?....
And last, but not least- It's Erfie and Chloe! They are really the stars of this film, but don't tell the humans.

Your Amazing Brain Adventure
is a web site all about Tickling Your Amygdala-
i.e. turning on the best part of your brain as easy as clicking on a light
switch. This is done as easily as imagining a feather inside of your head
stimulating a compass, the amygdala. The amygdala is a set of twin organs, a
part of your brain that sits right in between the most advance part of your
brain- the frontal lobes and pre-frontal cortex- and the most primitive part
of your brain- your "reptile brain" and brain stem. By tickling your
amygdala you instantly and directly increase creativity, intelligence,
pleasure, and also make possible a spontaneous natural processes known as
"paranormal abilities", although such things as telepathy and ESP are really
as natural as breathing, or as easy doing simple math in your head. The
ability to self stimulate the amygdala by something as simple as thought has
been proven in laboratory experiments, such as those conducted at Harvard
University research labs, 1999-2009, and can be tracked with modern brain
scanning machines such as fMRI and PET... Indeed, thought is faster than
light.
