]]> Comment on Thank you Beyond Naked crew by Maddy DuMont http://www.beyondnakedfilm.com/posts/289/thank-you-beyond-naked-crew#comment-70 Maddy DuMont Fri, 24 Jun 2011 19:15:54 +0000 http://www.beyondnakedfilm.com/?p=289#comment-70 Hi there! I was interviewed by your film crew at the parade (Princess Party Cloudy, not naked) and I later had a thought about the nature of this event that I wanted to share. The Solstice parade is exactly the parade one would create at age 5. No words, no motors, no real order, no reason or explanation for anything, floats on wagons, decorations in bike wheel spokes, stilts, puppets, costumes made from anything, music and dancing, bubbles, giant balls, hugs, candy... and most of all it's pure joy without modesty or self-c0nsciousness. At age five most people would paint their naked bodies and bike through the streets grinning. It is this pure instinctual celebratory joy that makes the Solstice parade and bicyclists so wonderful. I look forward to seeing your film about this wonderful parade! Sincerely, Maddy Hi there!
