During this workshop participants will be in complete darkness for the duration of the course. Using ceremonial darkness as a shamanic tool is a classical method of shamans the world over for stalking the self, accessing invisible landscapes and embracing deeper aspects of both unconscious and super-conscious states. The procedure of being in darkness over several days brings about a remarkable stilling of the mind and from this pool of quietude the oft hidden gifts of intuition and creativity arise.

The workshop will be made up of a number of exercises and encounters with the self and with nature, bringing in their wake unusual phenomena including remarkably lucid levels of dream consciousness – where the borders between dreaming and not dreaming diminish and then disappear altogether; the ceasing of mind-chatter, the exploration of our own luminosity – and one of the primary aims of the shaman; to experience the world as a sea of energy. As well as our work with nature we shall also be using movement, sound, writing and healing practices which will assist us in our journey towards becoming the seer – the ‘see-er’ – one who truly sees in the dark and witnesses the world not with the eyes, but with the entire body. Darkness Visible is an adventure into the unknown, and Simon Buxton and Allison Brown call to those ready to undertake what will be – literally – a leap into the dark.

Darkness Visible is a 1979novel by British author William Golding. The book won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize. The title comes from Paradise Lost, from the line, 'No light, but rather darkness visible'.

Darkness Visible Cast

The novel narrates a struggle between good and evil, using naïveté, sexuality and spirituality throughout. It marked Golding's re-emergence as a novelist, eight years after the publication of his previous book, the collection The Scorpion God.

A dark and complex novel, it centres on Matty - introduced in chapter one as a naked child emerging horribly disfigured from a bomb explosion during the London Blitz in World War II. He becomes a ward of the state and is put into a Catholic boarding school, where he is shunned by other children and sexually abused by a teacher, Mr. Pedigree. When he grows up, however, his selfless kindness and mysterious persona attract a devoted following of people who believe him to be a saint.

The second part of the book is centered on twins Toni and Sophy from the point of view of Sophy. Their story starts from their childhood, when they are around 10 years old, and follows their growth as they become young adults.

The recurring theme in these two stories is madness, Matty being split between his two faces, and Sophy being schizoid as she is split between her and her sister and others.
