"The actors in these rituals look like a cross between a person, an elementary force such as a river or a storm, and a wild animal. Watching the rituals is a little like looking through a window at a particularly dramatic and captivating bit of weather. It doesn’t look like a “play,” but it is absolutely mesmerizing to watch these elemental forces gathering themselves and affecting each other." (four stars) -- David Finkelstein, FilmThreat

Seven non-performers use paratheatre techniques to expose what they are living for and give expression to non-secular versions of the crucifixion archetype in this collective journey scripted and narrated by Antero and the participants themselves. The CRUX lab ran five weeks in the summer of 1999 for three times a week at four hours per session. (Color and B/W; digital 8 video)

"ARCHAIC COMMUNITY"
(1991; 77 min.)
Camille Hildebrandt (above). Click images for production details.
A demonstration and explanation of the nuts and bolts of Alli's ritual technology for Self-initiation as enacted by a group of complete novices who randomly responded to a poster on the streets of Seattle in 1991, calling for "marginal men and women to explore how rituals work without dogma". This lab met for three months in the autumn of 1991, three times a week for 3-4 hours per session. (Color and B/W; hi-8 video)
