Instruments of the Now

Manifesto:

What would you do if you knew that this were your last day on earth? Do it. People are always planning and working for the future, but have you ever experienced the future? Take your time NOW to live in the present because the future is an illusion. All that will ever exist is THIS MOMENT. This moment is your whole life, so give it the attention it deserves. Smile, have fun, be happy. Enjoy it NOW. There’s only long enough to spread love. Everyone has a different idea about how to live, dress, and act in society. Only YOU can know what is right for you. Be who you want to be and do what you want to do, NOW! Be an individual. Show how you are special. Be creative and spontaneous because it’s just more fun. Life is a gift, so share its goodness with others. Love all and teach all how to be happy, unique, and compassionate like you! When should you love and teach? Now! There is only the present moment! Do your part for a better world by loving and helping to bring others’ focus into the NOW. Play your life’s song in harmony with the Instruments Of The Now.

We are an orchestra of uniqueness that needs every part of humanity playing its own spontaneous melody. To attain harmony in a band with so many different tunes, we must reach a new level of cooperation and consciousness. Please keep this sheet or give it to someone who needs it.

As my brother and I performed around South America we spread the message of living in the instant after every show. For insight into the group's humble beginnings, please read the "Instruments of the Now" update posted in the South America section of this website. For this insight to make any sense you'll have to read the updates posted previously, and inevitably you'll end up transfixed or paralyzed by the quantity of text. This glimpse into past exploits matters as much as all the expectations we have about the group's future triumphs.

All of our collective pasts and futures are hyped-up hearsay. The present moment is the only time when tangible talent transpires. Our motivational masterpiece is a blend of music, dance, martial arts, fire, LED illumination, juggling, circus and inspiration. Raw talent is blares its tune on our instruments: poi, staffs, devilsticks, nunchakus, ball juggling, contact juggling and most importantly, our physical bodies. Rah, rah, rah, hype, hype, hype...

The performance is the instrument to create a receptive audience. The message is applicable to all belief systems and practices. Visit our website for more information about an unforgettable gathering of any genre. We are available for travel to your next function, wedding, party, conference, graduation, baby shower, funeral, etc.

Seriously though, contact us, or pass this information to someone who needs it...
