Many
of our full film concepts will be seen in skits for the
CREATIVE EVOLUTION TV show.
An
Electronica Universal-Groove Music & Spokenword Video/DVD
&
Sojournal Vision:
The
concept has evolved now from Aliah's idea for a show
CREATIVITY LIVES! that grew out of her column:
Urban Vision Questing
in the Austin Monthly: Mike's Feedback.
And several articles
in the Austin Monthly Newspaper - Austin Daze on
the theme of being an artist whose an activist in today's
world.
We choose
to live in Scare-city
or Synchroni-city?
City or not - what is... simply is inside us all...
and so began her
isness
Vision Questing
The multi-media experience will
include
many of Aliah's forms of creativity including her collages
& paintings.. and is dedicated
to healing through creativity.
The spokenword poetry & her electronia music & Performance
Art that will be performed by Aliah and will also include
some of Aliah's new concepts for dance.
A
TV Talk Show Vision:
LIFE IS....
Aliah
had a dream where she woke up
remembering every detail of it - a TV show that started
out with a theme song
(that she remembered fully when she awoke:
Life
is.. what you make it!
It's all about keeping it
sacred
Life is.. what you make it!
And everything that you do
comes back to you..(repeated)
Then one of her music videos played with a song on
the topic of today's show - a growth oriented issue
that needs healing from a social perspective. The
vision of the show is to be funny and light while
still being packed with information and guests who
have more information to offer on each topic in an
atmosphere of "New Thought" Solutions, Activism,
Empowerment, & Wellness.

DID
YOU SEE THE MOVIE "ACCEPTED"?
HOW BOUT A NEW SELF-DISCIPLINED
CREATIVE MEDIA
BASED PEACE EDUCATION
& MORE TIME WITH OUR KIDS?
We
tried many schools for our son... we were really not happy
with what we found. Everything was based on outer discipline
- none of it was really cultivating a life long love of
learning because of the pressure of the homework getting
done because they had to do it. We were blow away with how
much homework they expected from them and all the while
they hated doing it. Parents were reduced to task masters
and constantly having to get them to jump through these
homework hoops - other family time was no longer happening.
To get them to finish it - all kinds of deals had to be
made and after a while we realized that we didn't even think
it was helping him to learn - and much of it was such busy
work and not so much what we would want him to learn anyway
or at his real level of ability.
All along - we had been teaching our son to read and write
by coming up with fun and interesting ways to learn the
words with him. Now
he homeschools and we are developing this game and many
other educational projects
as part of his education.
A
Family TV Show/Game Vision:
Together
with their son Zack
and some of his friends,
Paz & Aliah are working on a
Family TV show/game/web site called:
Spelling & Typing in the
Global Village ©
2005
K-College
- FOR KIDS OF ALL AGES
this is a concept
for an internet network and video game... that teaches
a new way to spell & type while having fun getting
to know about how English is a melting pot language
- and has parts of many languages - and this is
why words are spelled the way they are. Etymology
as a journey.
They
collect word stories and make contributions for
other students out there. And as they learn a certain
amount of spelling words their own way, they get
to go to the Global Village
where they learn more grammar and communications
skills from
Elders of each culture.
The language that is used in the
Global Village represents us all.
English takes from every language and bridges us
all - let's honor these contributions from each
culture and allow Students all over the world to
connect with "word stories" and ways they
remember how to spell words - leading to their poetry,
spokenword and stories... shared in many forms of
presentation. A celbration of creative writing and
value to making a contribution in the global village.
Are you also interested in co-creating an education
where students
(of all ages) help co-create their own education...
and become inventors of the world's much needed
solutions. Let
us know if you & your family are interested
in being part of this new ENTERTRAINMENT
DEVELOPMENT
IN HOISTIC
CO-CREATIVE MEDIA RESEARCH
BASED
INTEREST
CENTERED PEACE EDUCATION
along with us?
This game is just the start.
Tell
us about yourself & why you are into it.

A
Reality meets Comedy Rockumentary Vision
that simply asks:
Are
you experienced?
Would you like to BE experienced?
And more to the point...
R U A Rockaholix...
who needs to be experienced?
If
you think you may just be a... Rockaholix...
take the first step
and click on the Rockaholix logo above to go to the web site.
There is an overview here with things that are not on the
web site more personal to me.
If you think you may be a rockaholix then check out to see
if you agree with this "rock logic":
| Note
that Rockaholix is spelled with an x instead
of a c.
There are many reasons:
1) It's more ROCK-ish.
2) it's the same word for one Rockaholix - as it is
for many Rock - because the x is magic when at the end
of any rock word. (Used in rock band names & rock
song titles.)
3) it's just cooler... just as the z also has special
s powers -
it becomes more than many -
it like goes to 11! |
This
is a story about
transformation through
ROCK - the most powerful force
of inspiration for many -
for many generations now -
and many to come.
Our
story begins with Aliah who now sees why her life has become
unmanageable due to her band breaking up again. And then she
is finally able to admit that she is -
in fact - a Rockaholix.
She begins looking for help for this " dis-ease"
and finds there is none available. In
fact, the whole free world encourages Rockaholix behavior
- and that when she begins to see that most commons things
that are sold through the power of ROCK - everything from
kids toys to perscriptions drugs - and even Hendrix ended
up in several car commercials,
and it's not going away -
so how do we channel
the forces of Rock for good?
As she looked a bit closer and
she saw that DEEP DOWN INSIDE -
EVERYONE WANTS TO BE A ROCKSTAR!
But it seems to be one big contradiction!
Fight Da Man = Become Da Man!
So what's the answer?
Let's talk about it.
Part
reality - part life-calling -
and part rock & roll fantasy...
©2003
She
wasn't sure, but that's when - with the support
of her very cool son (Aliah's
son Zack) & his
Dad (Aliah's husband/Soulmate) -Paz who has played
in many bands with her over the years) she starts
the first Rockaholix Anonymous Meetings in all the
cities she lived and giged over the years:
ROCKAHOLIX
AUSTIN
ROCKAHOLIX
BOSTON
ROCKAHOLIX
SANTA CRUZ
ROCKAHOLIX
SAN FRANCISCO
TOUCH >SOULER SYSTEM >SPIRAL
Now her son is a pre-teen and she starts seeing
how needed the R. A. ideals are - now more than
ever.
So she started having R.A. meetings and more and
more people keep showing up.
All these wonderfully wacky talented rockaholix
who really have something to say to the world. The
Rockaholix Anonymous meetings grow into a tight
knit close circle of friends who share and support
each others music & the growth that happens
when you dedicate you life to doing ROCK in a healthy
way - practicing - as R.A. teaches -
"Safe-Rock" way
or in her case Safe Sex.
As R.A. keeps growing
around the world - they end up getting the support
of known rockers around the world who are dedicated
to helping the US
to rock the vote
& bring peace through rock!
Her son is a grounded
business minded kid (like Alex Keton from Family
Ties) who sees what is happening as a great
business venture and he gets his friends
& him to start making and selling tons of Rockaholix
-
Rockin' 4 Peace -
merchandise.
This leads to many
interesting Courtship Of Eddie's
Father conversations mixed in with old
Kung Fu flash backs
of Paz's Martial Arts training with his teacher
when he was young. As he continues passing it on
to his son - along with guitar lessons and tons
of kind comedy about rockers taking back our country
through the power of ROCK.
Meanwhile,
his Rockaholix Mom and all the other lovable quirky
rockaholix characters in the movie have their own
projects and this is what creates a rockumentary
feel of a scene of several
real bands, with real lives, who are serious about
making their Rock and Roll dreams come true, and
seriously rockaholix in how they go about it - and
of course - that's why we love them.
Much
of what is in the script is true and because truth
is stranger than fiction - we plan to keep pulling
from a lot of the real experiences that the solo musicians
looking for bands and bands with various styles of
rock bands have really gone through or are going through
at the time of shooting.
Mostly, we get to see the positive influence all these
loveable rockaholix misfits
have as they support each other to grow through the
R.A. meetings that teach them to find their inner
rockstars and how this understanding slowly
change their lives - forever - as they begin to accept
their calling while they widen their view of how to
offer their ROCK to the world.

Aliah
showcased at the Austin Capitol City Comedy Club
& other Comedy Clubs with her set
where she admits to being...yes...
a "Rockaholix" -
after years of seriously going after
Rock and Roll dreamz... she can admit that.
She now offers her funny eye-opening perspectives
in her comedy about a world gone Rockaholix!
And just how the powerful force of ROCK really is
and how it needs to be used for the powers of good -
for peace & humanity - not commercialism,
War, and motivation for the
great American Lifestyle of Chronic Debt and
never seeing the people you love to share it with...
time to be: Stepin' Out of De Blur
(A new song by Aliah)
For
Aliah, discovering Rock music
over the years has been a noble journey
of self discovery and social responsibility.
A calling to inspire positive change
that first came from listening to the many
songwriters who inspired the awakening of a
generation into soul searching values of life.
CIVIL RIGHTS & PEACE ACTIVISM = ROCK.
ROCK has birthed many civil rights solutions
for a better world over the years and
continues to grow with each generation
that builds upon it.
Now decades strong,
these ideals have taken root
and continue to grow further into
awakenings for peace.
An especially funny part to the Rockaholix movie
are her many real true stories of
"Miracle Rockstar Interventions" with
some of today's
biggest rockstars who she has been blessed to
"chance meet" so that they could help
direct her music to the next step - even if just a symbol:
Stevie
Nicks (Aliah met her & thanked her for the
Crystal Vision & gave her a crystal ball necklace.),
Jon Anderson (She ran into Jon of the band YES
-
and he spoke to her about how to direct her musical
education.) Robert Plant who
she met on the streets of Harvard Square (where TOUCH
- her band/duo played often & he loved the name
- she had gone folk but really wanted to play rock -
she felt that he had cometo tell her that Rock can be
positive and spiritual - even during the 90's when there
was a dark energy in ROCK - a talented Seatle seen,
yet dark.
Then, Lenny Kravitz released
"Let Love Rule!" and that gave her the inspiration
to go into more of a funky direction with her voice
had longed to go. Then, at a CMJ Conference, just as
she as wondering why she had come - because the CMJ
theme was "KEEP MUSIC EVIL!" - and she was
dressed like the next Dee-lite band memeber with an
outfit she had made - very colorful and was smiling
and happy - unlike most of the other attendees in their
plaid shirt and jeans
and edgy energy more Earthy than Goth - yet still dark..
she spoke to Paz in tears about why did she come.. Lenny
Kravitz canceled playing there blah blah and he calmed
her down and told her there was a purpose.
She hung up the phone & then turned around and saw
Lenny Kravitz himself
- standing there . and she was able to personally thank
him for giving positive energy back to rock - and on
the air waves again with his song
"Let Love Rule!" - making it hip to care again
-
and how it had influenced her music & her life.
She met Lenny Kravitz again
- a few times when because she was Feng Shui-ing the
dressing rooms for touring musicians through Austin
with Red Dawn Productions for Pace Concerts. She offered
readings backstage and gave early editions of her book
FOODCOOL
with FOODCOOL
KITS to the musician she thought would appreciate
it. She gave her FOODCOOL
KIT to Lenny to support his voice health during
heavy touring and it was at a time when he needed it
- blessed SYNCHRONICITY!
And these are just a few of the stories -
there's been many more - here's a special one...

ROCK
CAN BE
A VERY POWERFUL HEALING FORCE!
The Story of the Frog
and the Snake
A true story by Aliah Selah
It
all started with this magical gig - there was this big
full mooo that night and it was a perfect Austin summer
evening at our outside patio gig at the 503 Coffee Shop
and we had our full band (SPIRAL) who were totally on
that night.
There was this big producer guy there to check us out
who was going to stay for just a song or two - but later
said, he could not leave - the music was too good.
Afterwards, he talked to us at length about what he
could do for "my" career - and he wanted to
meet with us to talk more about my career. So with a
raised brow we made an appointment to meet with him
the next evening at our home when we would also invite
a very savvy Music Biz friend of ours to be there as
well.
As
we packed up the gear, there was this beautiful huge
frog in the middle of this really urban area. So I asked
the frog - if it wanted to come to my pond and live
there? Then, the frog actually just let me pick it up
and hold it all the way home. At our intentional group
home PEACEFARM in the front yard - we had built a 5
tier waterfall and pond by the front door. As I came
out the next morning to meditate there, I walked out
the door and gaspsed to see that
the foot of the frog was in the mouth
of a snake.
I
called for Paz and he came out right away with a broom
and gave the snake one big wack and out came the frog.
Another friend put the snake in a pillow case and went
far away up the mountain with it -
while I tended to the frog that was not hurt
just pretty shook up. Then Paz and I, and many friends
who hung out at our house and several of our housemates
spent the whole day talking about what the message was
-
that we were being given through this symbolic event.
We knew this meant something about our meeting with
this
big time producer guy that night....
but what was the message?
We would love to know what you think
about this Rockaholix story...
find out what happened with the snake and the frog story
in the upcoming Rockaholix movie."

This
movie is a journey that has now grown into a
part reality/part life calling/part rock 'n' roll fantasy film
-
to help save the planet through
ROCK going back to the
inspiration of the 60's -
yet with the sounds of the NOW Generation.
Those of every age, every nationality, and race -
we are talking a bout the whole human race -
and we all want solutions NOW.
There is no us vs. them
This is about all of us on the planet!
We all know that many solutions are possible NOW.
THE REST OF THE WORLD IS WATCHING
& AMERICA NEEDS YOU NOW!!!!
SOUND LIKE A ROCK ANTHEM?
Write one and send it to us
and it just might be used in the Rockaholix movie.
The
Rockaholix web site & movie is dedicated
to bringing the world to Rock 'n' Roll salvation..
through the R.A. 12 steps & 7 Pathways
to practicing "safe rock" -
where we save our ears..

& rock the vote!
The idea is to birth a band of musician,
actor, comedians by doing
The Rockaholix movie and then follow it up
