Sacred Window Podcast: Nurturing Awareness in Postpartum Care
There is a quiet longing many of us carry—a knowing that something essential has been lost in the way we support families after birth.In this episode of the Sacred Window Podcast, Christine Eck reflects on how that longing can become lived purpose. Drawing from years of postpartum caregiving, Ayurvedic wisdom, and lived experience, this conversation explores why postpartum care has been diminished in modern culture—and how it can be reclaimed through conscious presence, community responsibility, and remembrance.This episode speaks to those who feel called to care: postpartum caregivers, birth workers, mothers, partners, and anyone who senses that healing is not meant to happen alone. We explore the difference between awareness and action, the role of fire and determination in living our purpose, and why conscious caregiving is not limited to a profession—it is a cultural practice that begins within families and extends outward into community.In this conversation, we explore:– How longing becomes purpose through conscious action– Why postpartum care is a cultural responsibility, not an individual burden– The loss of traditional support systems and what it means to rebuild them– How caregiving begins with presence, trust, and relationship– Creating a culture where families are held, not left to navigate fragility aloneThis episode is an invitation to remember that when care is present, the postpartum window becomes a space of integration rather than trauma—and that each of us has a role in restoring this way of caring.Are you feeling the call to know more about Conscious Postpartum Care?Reach out!

Just because a very chaotic 2025 is coming to an end and a new year is about to begin doesn't mean you can ignore the personal challenges you've managed to sweep under the rug…2026 is the year you'll face the mirror based on the 10th card of the Tarot, The Wheel of Fortune (the divine mirror of self-reflection), and all of those obstacles will re-appear. What you choose to do — or don't do — to resolve these challenges may determine the fragile difference between taking control of your life or being controlled by others.Paul shares his 2026 forecast including a roadmap for your spiritual survival this week on Spirit Gym.For Spirit Gym listeners: To get the most out of Paul's 2026 solocast, we encourage you to watch it on his YouTube channel.

2025 Show Notes addendum: In light of the release of C1E100 (the final "non-retrospective" Ch 1), I thought it would also be good to release C2E20 (the final "non-retrospective" Ch 2) as a nice tie-in. Though my production quality has improved somewhat since late 2024, it is nowhere even remotely close to the quantum leap that is the difference between my Dec 2025 and my Jan 2017 production quality difference with C1E1. Channel 2 was a COMPLETELY different kind of show, though. Rather than being a vaguely NPR-esque mixtape-style program that was "less a podcast per se" and more "a late nite FM radio music program which just so happened to go out over the podosphere", Ch 2 was a "proper podcast" with a co-host out of Chicago and myself taking turns sharing tracks and talking about them. We wrapped the show at the end of 2024 because my co-host had been podcasting since 2009, and would be turning 50 in 2025, and so he decided at the end of 2023 that he would be retiring completely from podcasting at the end of 2024, and I didn't feel like replacing him, so we just wrapped it together. Anyway, since we referenced C2E20 and even featured a few tracks from it in C1E100, and since we're rerunning C1E1, I figured I'd rerun this too. By the way: that one upcoming Ch F one-off with Trey Johnson of NintenDomain and W.A.R.T. Radio will be in this exact format - only, obviously, a different co-host. Anyway....enjoy! Also, this rerun will release on Christmas Eve. So, Merry Christmas to anyone who celebrates it - and a belated Happy Hannukah to anyone who celebrates it instead (I celebrate both, myself!) :-D ------------------------------------------------------ orig show notes Today's Broadcast is C2E20, for Theme Thursday, Oct 24th, 2024.

Sacred Window Podcast: Nurturing Awareness in Postpartum Care
In this solo episode of the Sacred Window Podcast, Christine Eck offers a quiet, steady reflection for caregivers who are holding more than most people can see.Recorded during the season of darkness and light, this conversation emerges from an awareness that burnout has become almost synonymous with caregiving—especially in postpartum care, birth work, and family support. We name it, we expect it, and often we carry it alone.But burnout is not a personal failure.And it is not the price of meaningful work.Through the lens of Ayurveda and the Universal Mother Principles, Christine explores caregiving as a reciprocal process—one in which the caregiver must also be held, nourished, and resourced from within. She speaks honestly about motivation, depletion, inner fire, and the quiet self-judgment that can arise when we feel we are never doing enough.This episode is an invitation to step back from the pressure of productivity and return to what truly sustains us. To remember that while we may not be able to do everything, we can tend the center—one moment of presence, one connection, one intentional pause at a time.This conversation is for:Caregivers feeling stretched thinPostpartum and birth professionals navigating exhaustionMothers and family caregivers longing for restorationAnyone questioning how to stay in service without burning outRather than offering fixes or formulas, this episode creates space for reflection—asking you to consider your own story of depletion, and the possibility of restoration that still lives within you.Care was never meant to flow in only one direction.You are part of the circle, too.We're grateful to walk this path together.Are you feeling the call to know more about Conscious Postpartum Care?Reach out!

Sacred Window Podcast: Nurturing Awareness in Postpartum Care
Some callings arrive quietly, long before we have language for them.In this episode of the Sacred Window Podcast, Christine Eck sits in conversation with Nicole Stratis, whose path into postpartum and nervous system care began not in a classroom, but in the soil—working organic farms, listening to plants, and learning through the intelligence of the hands.Nicole shares how farming and herbalism became early initiations into embodiment, presence, and slowness, and how these earth-based teachings now live at the heart of her work offering sacred touch and conscious care to women—especially during the sacred window after birth.Together, we reflect on the way plants, land, and the natural world invite us back into our own humanness. We explore touch as relationship rather than technique, postpartum care as a continuation of ancient remembering, and the truth that the body already knows how to heal when it is met with reverence and trust.This conversation is for anyone who feels called to caregiving work but senses their path has been non-linear, intuitive, or difficult to explain. It is a reminder that your story—however winding—is already preparing you.In This Episode, We Explore• Embodied beginnings and unexpected paths into caregiving• Farming and herbalism as spiritual and somatic teachers• Sacred touch as a language of presence• Nervous system healing in postpartum care• Trusting the body's innate intelligence• Listening for the call that has been guiding you all alongIf this conversation speaks to something stirring in you, we invite you to stay connected with us and explore conscious postpartum caregiving through the lens of Ayurveda and the Universal Mother Principles.Learn more at www.sacredwindowstudies.comAbout Nicole:Nicole Shea Stratis guides women home into their bodies through the art of sacred touch and embodied presence. Her path to becoming a licensed massage therapist, yoga teacher, and biodynamic craniosacral therapist began in the soil—working organic farms and apprenticing with herbalists across the country—where she awakened to the profound connection between the earth's health and our own. Through modalities including Lomi Lomi Hawaiian Massage, the Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Massage, and Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, she honors the body's innate intelligence as the true healer. Nicole holds space for women to reclaim trust with their bodies, supporting nervous system healing and postpartum care with the deep reverence and presence they deserve.Nicole's Link:About | Nicole Stratis, LMTAre you feeling the call to know more about Conscious Postpartum Care?Reach out!

Episode Title: "A Whopping 12 Word Balloons!" - Summer Hiatus Comics & Roberta Tovey's Doctor Who Song - Patreon Exclusive Sample HOLIDAY GIFT TO OUR LISTENERS: The Doctor's Beard Podcast is unwrapping a special Patreon Exclusive episode for all listeners this holiday season! Join John and Jim as they explore what kept young Doctor Who fans entertained during the 1965 summer break between Seasons 2 and 3. ROBERTA TOVEY'S "WHO'S WHO" (1965) Before diving into comics, the hosts examine a rare Doctor Who musical artifact: a single released by Roberta Tovey (who plays Susan in Doctor Who and the Daleks). Composed by Malcolm Lockyer (the movie's composer), this track remains mysteriously under-documented compared to other Doctor Who novelty songs like "I Want to Spend My Christmas with the Daleks." The B-side was called "Not So Old" (unrelated to Doctor Who). BONUS MUSIC DISCOVERIES: Malcolm Lockyer also released "The Eccentric Doctor Who" and "Daleks and Dolls" "Dance with the Daleks" - The hosts declare this the weakest cash grab yet, a generic instrumental with "Dalek" slapped on the title Jim's verdict: "We demand more Daleky from our Dalek music!" SUMMER HIATUS COMIC STRIPS REVIEWED: "Time in Reverse" (August 9-23, 1965) TV Comic Writer/Artist: Neville Main John appreciates the clever backward storytelling requiring reversed dialogue for all non-TARDIS crew characters, though he notes the Doctor and companions simply wait out events rather than actively participating. The story features "German soldiers" (drawn with distinctive helmets) reminiscent of pre-WWII American comics using sideways Nazis without naming them. Jillian Count: 12 word balloons (chatty Kathy, but still just Greek chorus) "Lizard World" (August 30 - September 20, 1965) TV Comic Writer/Artist: Neville Main First time John and Jillian are completely separated from the Doctor and on their own! Jim praises Neville's artwork capturing the massive scale of the lizard creatures. John questions the Doctor complaining about being "an old man" while climbing when he performed fine in earlier stories. Jillian Count: 13 word balloons (a landmark!) The episode concludes with Jim nearly suggesting they review The Avengers comics advertised in the strip instead. TV COMIC ANNUAL 1966 (Released September 1, 1965) "Prisoners of the Kleptons" Writer/Artist: Neville Main The Kleptons return! Landing on their overheated world, John shoots down a Klepton vehicle (back to using guns). The aliens want help invading Earth but settle for lowering captives into boiling oil. John saves the day with an unclear plan, leaving Jim wishing for more ambitious storytelling. Jillian Count: 3 word balloons "The Caterpillar Men" Writer/Artist: Neville Main Set in 2035, alien Caterpillar Men invade Earth and control the world's scientists from one location. The Doctor identifies himself as "Dr. Who" and doesn't correct being called an Earthman. John and Jillian visit World Pest Control, convincing officials to spray the invaders away. The entire resolution happens in half a page. Jillian Count: 3 word balloons John saves the day again! Both agree: Even bad Dalek strips surpass the Doctor Who ones. MOVIE BONUS FACT: Doctor Who and the Daleks played in scattered UK theaters into January 1966, but bombed in America when released July 1966. Jim's theory: This may have sunk Terry Nation's ABC deal for a Dalek TV series. Americans wanted Batman in '66, leading to Jim's high-concept pitch: "Batman versus the Daleks in Londinium 2050!"

Hawaiian Concert Guide Show 694 – Nano Banana Episode Synopsis Welcome to Show 694 – Nano Banana. This episode takes listeners on a sweeping musical journey across Hawaiian heritage: beginning with timeless mele rooted in the landscapes and stories of Waipiʻo Valley and the Hawaiian monarchy, moving through themes of aloha ʻāina and environmental stewardship, honoring the legacy and refinement of the Makaha Sons, venturing into the lush and cinematic world of modern Exotica, and finally returning home through the warm harmonies of Waipuna. The playful title “Nano Banana” reflects how small musical details reveal surprisingly big cultural stories — a perfect theme for this carefully curated playlist. Playlist – Show 694: Nano Banana Hiʻilawe – Kahiau Lam Ho (4:19) Ho‘omālamalama “Hiʻilawe” is one of the most iconic traditional mele of Hawaiʻi, tied to Waipiʻo Valley on Hawaiʻi Island. The mele references the towering Hiʻilawe waterfall and a story of hidden love. Generations of musicians—from Sam Liʻa to Gabby Pahinui—have carried this mele forward. Kahiau Lam Ho's contemporary interpretation preserves the melodic intimacy of the piece while presenting it through a modern vocal and production style. Sanoe – Kahiau Lam Ho (4:56) Ho‘omālamalama Composed by Queen Liliʻuokalani and Princess Likelike, “Sanoe” is a mele filled with kaona—hidden meaning—traditionally understood as a story of secret royal affection. Lam Ho's version leans into the quiet emotional tone of the mele, using minimalist accompaniment that allows the poetry and nuance to shine. Pukalani Hale – Kawika Kahiapo (4:26) Kuʻu Manaʻo “Pukalani Hale” is a place-based mele grounded in the upcountry region of Pukalani on Maui — often translated as “heavenly gateway.” Kawika Kahiapo, known for his warm slack-key guitar and heartfelt delivery, performs the mele as an expression of home, spirituality, and gratitude. His musicianship reinforces the intimate connection between land and identity. Mother Earth – Kawika Kahiapo (4:15) Kuʻu Manaʻo “Mother Earth” expands Hawaiian concepts of aloha ʻāina to a global message of environmental responsibility. Kahiapo uses gentle acoustic textures to remind listeners of their obligation to care for the planet. The mele blends Hawaiian worldview with modern ecological awareness, making it a contemporary anthem of stewardship. Queen's Jubilee – Jerome Koko & Daniel Ho (5:15) Makaha Sons Memoirs “Queen's Jubilee” celebrates the musical heritage of the Makaha Sons through the talents of Jerome Koko and Grammy-winning producer Daniel Ho. Their collaboration fuses refined acoustic arrangements with the sentimental warmth associated with the monarchy era. The piece functions as a tribute — both to the past and to the many voices that shaped Hawaiian music across generations. Ka Makani Kā‘ili Aloha – Jerome Koko & Daniel Ho (4:56) Makaha Sons Memoirs A beloved classic mele often translated as “The Wind That Steals Love Away,” the song personifies wind as an emotional force. Koko and Ho offer a clean, harmony-rich interpretation that honors the poetic storytelling at the heart of the mele. It pairs beautifully with “Queen's Jubilee” to form a thematic homage to Hawaiian musical legacy. Ouanalao – The Waitiki 7 (4:33) Adventures in Paradise “Ouanalao,” named after the indigenous term for Saint Barthélemy, fits squarely in the spirit of mid-century Exotica while elevating it with jazz sophistication and modern cultural respect. The Waitiki 7 are known for reinvigorating Exotica through scholarly musicianship rather than kitsch. This track creates a lush world-fusion soundscape that expands the emotional palette of the show. L'ours Chinois – The Waitiki 7 (8:07) Adventures in Paradise “The Chinese Bear” is a long-form instrumental journey blending Asian thematic colors, jazz improvisation, shifting tempo landscapes, and intricate percussion. It is cinematic in scope and demonstrates the ensemble's ability to honor Exotica's roots while pushing it into new, musically ambitious territory. The track deepens the atmospheric middle section of the episode. Lehua Mamo – Waipuna (4:22) Manaʻo Pili A mele celebrating the cherished yellow lehua blossom. Waipuna's arrangement uses contemporary harmonies and polished production to honor traditional imagery of forests, blossoms, and affection. The emotional tone begins to guide listeners back toward themes of home, love, and belonging. Home Kapaka – Waipuna (3:55) Manaʻo Pili A perfect closing mele expressing homecoming, identity, and emotional grounding. Waipuna's clear vocals and gentle arrangement bring the episode full circle, returning listeners to the values of place, ʻohana, and aloha that shape Hawaiian experience. © 2025 Hawaiian Concert Guide.

In 2025, South Eugene's Yosuke Shibata quietly put together one of the strongest junior seasons in the nation.He started the fall with a win at the Oregon City XC Invite, dropping 14:53.8 and showing early signs that he was ready for more. Two weeks later, he went 14:38.2 at Nike Portland XC — a race that didn't just give him a PR, it put him on everyone's radar across the region.From there, he kept leveling up. He won his first OSAA 6A state title in 15:01.1, closing hard against some of Oregon's best seniors. At NXR Northwest, he held his ground in one of the most aggressive regional races we've seen in years, finishing fourth in 14:45.0 to earn his spot at NXN.And on the national stage, he delivered again — 23rd at Nike Cross Nationals, just outside All-American, but fully inside the conversation of who belongs up front.What stands out about Yosuke isn't just the times. It's the way he carries himself. Steady. Composed. A kid who built confidence race by race until the belief finally caught up with the ability.As he heads toward track and the rest of his junior year, his trajectory feels less like a breakout and more like the start of someone settling into who he really is as a star on the national scene.Tap into the Yosuke Shibata Special.Please consider leaving a follow and a five-star review!
Sally Mann is a photographer and a New York Times bestselling writer. She is best known for making large-format black and white photographs of the people and places in her immediate surroundings: her children, her husband, and the rural landscape of her home state and the American South. Sally was born in Lexington, Virginia, the youngest of three children to Robert and Elizabeth Munger. Her father was a doctor and gave Sally his old Leica camera to play with. After university, she wanted to be a poet but she spent more than a decade as a commercial photographer while starting a family of her own and exhibiting her work on a small scale. She published her first book of photographs in 1984. That same year, she began taking pictures of her three children for a series called Immediate Family, which brought her both renown as well as infamy for touching on ordinary moments in their daily lives – playing, sleeping, and eating, sometimes while naked – but also speaking to larger themes such as death and cultural perceptions of childhood, rendering familiar subjects “both sublime and disquieting”. In the mid-1990s, she began to move away from the family pictures in favour of photographing the landscape around her. Much of Sally's body of work comes from observing what is closest at hand because, she says, “The things that are close to you are the things that you can photograph the best.” She has explored the identity of the American South, and her relationship with her place of origin, as well as mortality and decay, and the effects of muscular dystrophy on her husband. In her latest book, Art Work, she considers the challenges and pleasures of the creative process. Sally continues to live on the 800-acre family farm near Lexington with her husband Larry and a number of dogs.

It's time for some good old-fashioned epic action with our first episode on the Ramayana, one of the great Sanskrit-language epics from India. Composed as a written work from about 350 BCE onward (but probably much earlier as an oral poem), the Ramayana tells of the trials and tribulations of Rama, Prince of Kosala and avatar of the god Vishnu. It has everything from romance and battle to deep spiritual wisdom and a divine monkey hero who overthinks a lot.Want to read a transcript or see our references? Click here.

My thoughts are, I'm making you miserable It just doesn't mean as much I can't catch a break, I guess Chipmunk in cheekbones And missing this presence It's never escape this dismensions Or never dealing the message Or never just getting the lesson Move past it, It's kept in a box That has locks more secure than your mess is Entire apartments. From the start the argument has been, if not about this, than what? If not about us, than when? Or who? You should have been accomplished; Compliments to the chef, If you can cross this off your checklist You might have even made it To the age inside the matrix. It's just a broken down truck A whole damn box of tools You lose yourself and pretend You don't forget to use, But it's just useless Lower dosage, Pay the tip and pay the postage Post matron mortal, A whole box A whole box of chocolate Lost on your Botox Oh, but we're friends now? No. Robots in a digital world, Only programmed to carry out certain tasks, And then vanish. I dig up your past, and then replaced it with a mattress And a box of matches; Whoever does it next can have it— How they're making hatchbacks out of plastic, I can't manage, But it's fascinating. —The edit effect. Good to see I'm not the only one who noticed— turns out I am a trendsetter, trendsetter Now inaction doesn't really make the pain better But the strain of sweat and tears will make my bed wetter. Just a clip— The college kids don't know the difference It's just a temporary love because I'm friendless— The predicate of this is that the people never get it. As it happens, once I'm past it But let's have a laugh at medicine Inside my head and bring it back again, The panic So much for tall dark and handsome When it's decided that I want something Everyone does sure follow I am a trendsetter. Go back and get the song back, Jack Johnson For nine seasons I was Kevin Nealon, Ten since tent cities and intensities— Oh, there are English pubs? I only had the Irish, Blimey. Ten times limon, Rice and beans and I'm convinced I'm dying Cut my eye out Blood and ribbons, tenements and genre binders Television friends and Lipton dipping into Hot boiling water Have a monologue prepared And mother? Never talk about her. Tip the tooth fairy, bet she does her job Your wings are growing out in February Never leave the nest, dear Gotta wait till next year. These printers and prenups are dripping in women It's finally winter with little indifference To the matter at hand; You're well enough dressed But wet and soaked in raw sewage Standing in your ankle socks, You wanker. An addendum to all my ever living misses And these premium obsessions, So neglect the data that you entered, Even for a minute, introspections, Get the limit in but never medicine the mister You probably should have been there— It wasn't your decision. Encrypted sir, For heaven's sense, I love a good caricature But Heaven hasn't said a sentence since just after dinner When the strict caloric deficit set in With all the evidence collected. This is what become of the avoidance, I have to cut you out and then in the way, I guess I get rewarded but it shouldn't ever hurt this much just moving forward It really shouldn't ever hurt this much just moving forward. Apologies to Matt Damon, I am in pain And then the very subtle finger tips I will admit Could calm me down a bit I panic at the passkey woven case If all these baseless claims And waves of delusional grandeur; You can love that but never afford it How and arrow in a stray hat The fact is, I'm just a madman And a phantom And yet The cracks in the mask have been detected— An internet trend that I can pretend I hadn't mentioned to my artificial intelligence, Then again Curiosity let the cat out of the bag, But couldn't for a second bring him to have the heart to kill him. How many mistakes can I make in just this commercial break— They're breaking my heart from the land of the lost! You can beat the boss, but there's just another one You can play the game, but you can't turn it off— You get more lives than one, But I promise, you wouldn't want them It just gets harder, I walk on quantum physics Mystified by Wall Street, we all learn to die at once To become what we always wanted; Peace and nothingness, the power to see beyond screens, Out of the box where the state of the art Is the way of the world, And never the opposite. So I shared my toy With every other girl and boy Inside the World Wide Web Who wanted playing with it Guess you could say in a way I am giving, On the prejudice That all I'll ever get is just a glimpse or image With respect To turning my eyes backwards before it gets to damage any valuables. Those assholes. forgetmenots. // II. follow through. Unreleased TBA Symposium. [As Seen On TV] TBA 2025/2026 Composed by C'cxell Solïel Prod By -Ū.

Sacred Window Podcast: Nurturing Awareness in Postpartum Care
There are moments in early motherhood when the longing for support is so real it sits in the body like a weight. And for many families, that longing is met with another ache—the sense that professional postpartum care is out of reach.In this week's episode, I'm joined by Sarah Trott and Esther Gallagher, the soulful hosts of the Fourth Trimester Podcast, for a conversation that feels like a deep exhale. Together we explore what becomes possible when we look beyond traditional expectations of paid postpartum care and instead rediscover the ancient, human patterns that have held new mothers for generations.Sarah shares her experience of hiring Esther for both of her births, and how that early connection eventually led them to create their own platform of postpartum education. Esther—whose decades of experience in postpartum and birth work are rooted in an extraordinary story that began when she was just eight years old—offers wisdom that reminds us how natural it once was for mothers to be held by their community.Together, we hold the question so many mothers carry quietly:What do you do when you know you need help, but don't have the means to hire support?In this conversation, we explore:✨ How postpartum support was originally communal—not professionalized✨ What “doula” truly meant before the term expanded into birth work✨ Creative, accessible forms of care that don't depend on financial resources✨ The Universal Mother Principles as an inner compass when support feels scarce✨ The power of reciprocity, presence, and small gestures of nourishment✨ How to soften the shame so many carry around “not having a village”This episode is a reminder that while the culture around us may not naturally provide postpartum care, the possibility for care is never lost. Community can be built, even slowly. Support can arrive in small, meaningful doses. And the sacred window can still be held with reverence, even when resources feel thin.Wherever you are in your journey—mothering, caregiving, remembering your own postpartum story—I hope you feel seen here. You deserve support. You deserve nourishment. You deserve to be held.✨ Connect with UsLearn more about the Conscious Postpartum Caregiver Certification, free resources, and community offerings at the Center for Sacred Window Studies.Links for Sarah and Esther:Fourth TrimesterAbout Us - Fourth TrimesterAre you feeling the call to know more about Conscious Postpartum Care?Reach out!

"The original soundtrack I used from Cities & Memory's archive was recorded on a street in Cairo at sunset, outside the Marriott Hotel and Omar Khayyam casino, on Saray El Gezira Street. The famous Gezirah Palace was completed in 1869 by Khedive Ismail, to host dignitaries for the opening of the Suez Canal that year. When I first listened to this piece I heard, among the sounds of car horns and the evening prayer call, the sound of footsteps running down the street and away, and a sharp gasp of breath. The whipping wind in the microphone sounded like a jinn or an Afreet, plural Afareet. It reminded me of my favourite song El Shawarea Hawadeet (the streets are tales) by El Masreyeen from 1977. Lonely streets echoing with memories, stories and Afareet. "In the final piece, you can hear layers of sounds from different eras. The song Al Bulbul Gani (the nightingale came to me) recorded in Cairo in 1906, written by Abd al-hayy Hilmi; the sounds of drumming used in the Cairo Zar women's ritual by the group Mazaher – a ritual to try to find accommodation with demons that have taken over a woman's body. You can hear too, strange sounds of a furious female jinn screaming, shouting and banging at each outrageous sentence from British prime minister Anthony Eden, in his public address in 1956 during the Suez Crisis, where he attempts to justify Britain's bombing of Egypt. Oil is the justification for everything. "As this Cairo tale unfolds, the Arabian riff, or “Melodia Arabe”, sinuously weaves between the Zar drumming. Composed in the 1800's, the Arabian riff, also known as The Streets of Cairo, was a little Orientalist ditty that supposedly evoked the exotic Arab. The quote I am reading is from the 1899 gothic novel, Pharos The Egyptian, by Guy Boothby. It was one of many gothic horror stories of revenge by an angry Egyptian mummy or demon, a fear that haunted the Victorians during this era."
