From A SEPARATE REALITY:

"A crow loosens its neck next," [don Juan] said, and began twisting his neck and rubbing his cheeks on his shoulders. "Then he looks at the world with one eye and then with the other."

His head shook as he allegedly shifted his view of the world from one eye to the other. The pitch of his laughter became higher. I had the absurd feeling that he was going to turn into a crow in front of my eyes.

THE BEING FROM THE SKY

Culver City Tensegrity Workshop, October 1995

1.  Standing with feet shoulder-width apart, step forward with the left foot as you make 3 brushing movements with the hands. The hands brush up the front of the body, palms facing in, from waist to neck level, then flick out forward and down in a graceful circular motion.

2.  Step forward with the right foot while repeating 3 more brushing movements.

3.  With the right foot still ahead of the left, move arms back and straight behind you at hip level, 45 degrees down, with palms facing each other, almost touching. Swing arms up and forward over the head and back in a wing-like motion 3 times, saying the word 'speed' once at the end of the first full stroke.

4.  Raise arms straight out to the sides and make 3 small forward circular movements keeping the arms outstretched (the arms remain outstretched till the last step of the pass).

5.  Take a step forward with the left foot, placing it slightly ahead of the right foot, then step slightly forward with the left foot so that your feet are parallel and still shoulder-width apart, keeping your arms outstretched to your sides.

6.  Make 10 small forward circular movements with the arms.

7.  Turn the upper body sharply to the left, 90 degrees, and stare intently into infinity on the horizon to a count of 3. Turn sharply to the right, 180 degrees, and repeat, then to the front and repeat.

8.  Make 3 small forward circular movements, saying 'speed' at the beginning.

9.  Turn the upper body again to the left and rub chin on chest, rolling it over the left shoulder 3 times. Turn to the right and repeat, then to the front and repeat with a down and out circular rubbing movement of the chin on the chest.

10.  Make 3 small forward circular movements, saying 'speed' at the beginning.

11.  Turn the upper body again to the left and, closing the right eye, look down with the left eye to a count of 3. Turn to the right and repeat, shutting the left eye and looking down with the right, then to the front, looking down with both eyes.

12.  Make 3 small forward circular movements, saying 'speed' at the beginning.

13.  Move arms back and straight behind you at hip level, 45 degrees down, with palms facing each other, almost touching. Bend forward slightly at the waist and take 3 steps forward, starting with the left, placing the feet heel-to-toe in a straight line. Slowly straighten up and relax the arms to the sides.
