Swivelable




Lliam Greguez is a macro ice photographer who captures freezing moments of a mountain stream, and a creative arts therapist who uses music to engage chronically ill children in five hospitals around New York City.

He unloosed his experimental tendencies with five albums - a pair of Acoustic, a pair of Electric, and one Ambient.

The acoustics are: Other People’s Children in English and La Yola in Spanish, the latter written by Dominican artist Luis Días. Each showcase uptempo acoustic music that could be labeled anti-pop with a unique essence accompanied by deliberative lyrics.

Then the two rock albums also contains one by Luis Días and one by the trio 'Any of Several Weasels' reveling in the electric guitar sound. Luis' album is driven by Caribbean rhythms, while AoSW fuses punk and progressive.

Meanwhile, the 'Look of Utter Disbelief' explores synth, sampling and guitar improvisations. There are also two 80 minute stream tracks as heard in winter and summer.

Be sure to check out Lliam's website for a taste of his ice photography and stories

Elephant Fly


While elephants in the wild need our support, there are deranged elephants, in Washington and other cities around the world, stomping the life out of this earth and poisoning our families. Become a fly - let your voice be heard. Stand against the deceit and corruption.

Elephant Poem - Judy Grahn

Suppose you have an elephant
with 56 millimeter trunk
and say he’s tearing up the jungle
(say you think he’s drunk or crazy)
How’re you going to bring that elephant down?
lion can’t
bear could but don’t want to
and the panther’s too small for that job.

Then suppose you have an elephant
with a million millimeter trunk
and his jungle is the whole green world?
(and he’s drunk and crazy)
you see the problem.

one more word
about elephants
No matter how hard they try
elephants cannot pick their noses
any more than bankers can hand out money
or police put away their pistols
or politicians get right with God.

a sty
in the elephant’s eye
aint nothing
but a fly in his nose
is a serious if not fatal condition
when the fly
gets into that nostril
it begins to swell
and stay closed
he can’t smell can’t drink can’t think
can’t get one up on anybody
he beings to regret
all that flabby ammunition
hanging on him

he begins to wish
he’d been a little more bare-faced
like an ape or a fish
all those passageways
he needs to feed himself
tied up
ELEPHANT TURNED UPSIDE DOWN
by a fly
a million flies
outweigh a trunk
a tank
a bank
a million flies
outthink a pile of IBM junk

we must be wise
to the elephant’s lies
you may think we should try
to sober him up
but the trouble isn’t that he’s drunk
the trouble is
that he’s an elephant
with a multi-millimeter trunk
who believes the world is his jungle
and until he dies
he grows and grows
we must be flies
in the elephant’s nose
ready to carry on
in every town
you know there are butterflies
there are horse flies and house flies
blue flies, shoo flies and it’s-not-
true flies
then there are may flies and wood flies
but I’m talking about
can flies & do flies
bottle flies, rock flies and sock flies
dragonflies and fireflies
in the elephant’s nose
ready to carry on
til he goes down
