Can Bizarists be Gleeful? Of Course.

One weird type of Glee is demonstrated in the madness of Renfield.!

Another might be found in a "matchmaker" voo-doo type character.

As a little rotund wizard you can do wonders -- and mix very serious themes of social worth with chorteling myth.

But ALWAYS remember -- that who you are on the stage is an ACT and even if you are a gleeful and joyous person it is your choice whether to include that in the CHARACTER you play -- and your acting ability. Our job is to involve through our meaningful presentation of entertaining material. Whether ads a dark vampire -- an English Magician, a spry spiritualist or even as an elven prince. We must ACT the part.

I think that photo is the summum bonum of bizarre magick: wierd, kind, beautiful... and with a great humour. Bizarre magick is about feelings, emotions and to have a very deep silence after the performance, but you can have laughts. There is a travel into the many human sences and sensations. The spooky can be funny. And the funny can be spooky.

I assume the one in the tasteful court shoes is a real woman because drag queens have a compulsion to wear shoes too small for them - never too big.

The feather boa is, as suggested above, the clue. How many real women do you know adorn themselves with feather boas?

Let me get serious for a moment. Smile

I've been moving toward the bizarre lately, although I kind of started there. It's a kindred spirit sort of thing I suppose. (My second or third post was here, I think. So it's funny that I should think that I'm "returning".)

If I understand bizarre magic correctly (and I think I do), it's not about being serious and scary and dark, though obviously those things fit best with bizarre. Bizarre magic is not so much about what bizarre magic is; nor is it about what bizarre magic is not. It's not about serious and dark and scary, but it's not about being NOT serious dark and scary. Bizarre magic is, fundamentally, about trying to touch people with magic...


Well, sorta. I'm not so much about TOUCHING people with Magic as I am PUTTING the touch on people with Magic. "Magic, n: The art of turning superstition into coin." Smile

Thanks, Ambrose

Bizarre magick is a wonderful art that knows no bounds or limits!
I have laughed, cried, and er....done card tricks. But I'm telling you....
it was one heck of a card trick!
What man knows he calls Science
What he has yet to learn he calls Magick
Both are real!

Why are folks putting the k after magic? Are you seriously applying will and performing minor workings in front of strangers? And what about the consequences for all involved then? Cringe

Jonathan,
It seems as Bizarre Magic becomes more and more "mainstream"
as in "hey, I can do a triumph with tarot cards guys!"
to differentiate deeper more evocative truly Bizarre,
some practitioners are adding the "k" as in Bizarre Magick.

I don't think anyone (here anyway)
is confusing magic with witchcraft however,
so other than dark enchantment and entertainment... no consequences,
not any more than "Eternal Order" in your title signifies "Immortality".

My two-cents on the whole "to K or not to K" element.
Magically,
Walt
