Wolf Queen and Red Hood at JokerJokerTV 9/5 Thursday....

  https://www.youtube.com/live/tGtup769hFE

...from wolf land in north Portugal (Galicia) two wolf tales.... 

Wolf Queen 2022 tells the first century legend of Queen Lupa. It was her territory, where the body of St. James was carried 'in a stone boat drifting from the Mediterranean' to be buried by his disciples. A crazy story on both sides, Queen Lupa outwitted Romans, Visigoths, Catholic Church, local rulers, Muslim conquerers, and Spanish empire to remain unconquered. An 11th century monk writes about her in his travel book written for the Pope on the pilgrimage path to St. James' burial site in Santiago Cathedral. The monk tries to erase, propagandise and slander Queen Lupa at the same time. Meanwhile the Church was creating St. James patron of the crusades. Portuguese singer Tamara Pereira.  Planet of Dreams

Red Hood is from MauMau Blood Dreams 2024, a film and print series. I became aware of the fairytales and fables that originated in Galicia's north Portugal while researching the 2022 Wolf Queen film. The Neolithic tales morphed through millennium, revealing dark truths about our nature. Today these stories are the narrative of film, fiction, and visual arts. And I decided I wanted to write my own...in process...MauMau Blood Dreams

WhisperWish 2008 and Rogue Con 2008 videos @ JokerJokerTV 8/22

 https://www.youtube.com/live/jTYR9dUI91w

Two super early vids....WhisperWish from Signs, Wishes and Wonders 2008 with Grat Bodkin music. The Merry Go Round animals and ride was newly renovated, re-finished re-painted by San Francisco artists and art commission as I understand ...I can't stress how impossible to find such a beautiful ride anywhere in the US as this, even in Disneyland where artisans are paid well. This was a work of love and I stood in wonder at the detail like the hippo on the zebra saddle and the carving ....incredible.

And Rogue Con from Mr. E. 2008 with Christa Hunter performer and Jeff Crouch music. I am often intrigued by noir newspaper crime articles...mostly by women thieves and con artists and use their tale. Especially the ones who succeed eluding capture.
