shankar is a name for shiva, one the 3 main deities in the indian pantheon. his dance is the rhythm of the world, the beat of the heart, the cycle of day and night. he lives in the himalayas, and lies in the mountains smoking cannabis and his hair flows down from the mountains as the holy river ganges. his worshippers include "sadhus" wandering mendicants whose worship includes smoking chillums of hash, so they became very popular with the wandering freak set india. bom, or boom, or bem, or bam is a sound - a sharp sound. boom shiva is said by sadhus before they light the chillum to sanctify it shiva, let shiva know the chillum is being smoked, let other sadhus et al know to come share a chillum. loosely translated as: OH shiva ... I`m smoking a chillum, hey you sadhus, come and share it with me"

boom festival 2008 / idanha-a-nova
(events » live music)
Monday, August 11, 2008 - 10:00 PM
The Boom Is… Visionary… Sustainable Entertainment… Intercultural… A No Logo Area… Independent… Arts and Culture… Free Expression… Open Mind… Boom is heading towards its 7th edition. We are developing at this very moment several projects that will contribute for a new entertainment culture. The next contribution to the global Oneness has already a date.
Boom 2008 will take place on the shores of Idanha-a-Nova lake, Portugal, between August 11. and 18. However the full programme will be five days (from August 12 to 17). Gates will open on 11th and the festival itself will start the following day, on 12th. All cultural attractions, art, music concerts, DJ sets, performances, conferences and workshops will finish on August 17, more precisely at 11h59 p.m. At sunset of the following day, August 18, the gates will be closed. What can you expect from Boom 2008? You'll get into all the fantasy that has been produced at the margins of mainstream entertainment. Be delighted amidst a no corporative feeling, and be a part of a creative rebellion against normalized minds, through ancestral knowledge and visionary arts.
... is a psychedelic downtempo or psy-ambient music project. the members are simon posford (aka hallucinogen) and raja ram (the infinity project / quintessence). their sound has sampled eastern ethnic instruments and western contemporary synthesizer-based psychedelic music. posford is responsible for the synth and studio work while raja ram contributes with flute arrangements. |
