A collection of CJers

Post by Dizz »



Contact Juggling, an ancient art recently codified and popularized by Michael Moschen, is as indefinable as it is magical. Rather than try to describe it, the community of ContactJuggling.org began this project to show you how each of us sees Contact Juggling. Whether dance, juggling, mime, or magic (or perhaps all four or none at all), this video showcases years of hard work by artists across four continents, each bound together by a common interest but all unique in their study.

This is a project that a bunch of us did to show off what we are about. I'm in there for a few seconds at 1:37 :wah: Have fun watching, I did. The music was made by a contact juggler even. :-6 I love how this turned out.

That's pretty far out.

What is the matter those orbs are made of?

Some look like Quartz crystal, others appear to be plastic of some sort.

The balls are made of all kinds of stuff.

Clear/transparent: acrylic

Solid colored: Vinyl stageball (usually 4 inch)

Silver (mine): hollow stainless steel



Basically, it needs to be smooth with a uniform weight and sized between 70mm to 100mm big.

It's fun and relaxing. I do this before my exams to get my brain ready. It helps me focus.

Hi Dizz,



The video was fabulous. I think I'd like to try this for relaxation.



Could you tell me how to get started???? I have no clue as to learn how to do this...



Thanks,
