How to Handle an Anthropologist.
Russell Shuttleworth, PhD interviews shaman/performance artist Frank Moore
B&W, 816-page paperback book. In 1997, shaman/performance artist Frank Moore was contacted by Russell Shuttleworth, a then University of California, Berkeley graduate student, working on his doctoral dissertation. The thesis was a research study to help understand how men with moderate to severe cerebral palsy experience and interpret their search for intimacy and sexual relationships in the face of significant social and cultural barriers, or as Frank called it, “The Sexual Practices of Bay Area Men with Cerebral Palsy.” He wanted to interview Frank for this thesis. That interview quickly segued into 12 years of Russell interviewing Frank about Frank's life. Meanwhile, Frank encouraged Russell to live his dreams, which resulted in the discovery of Russell’s alter-ego Dr. Gruve, who dj'd a show on Frank’s LUVeR internet radio station, and played the harmonica in Frank's Cherotic All-Star Band. They did 88 interviews in all, even continuing via Skype when Russell moved to Australia to teach there. Russell is now a Medical Anthropologist PhD and a member of the faculty at Deakin University in Geelong, Victoria Australia. Inside this book are the full transcripts of these interviews.

Cherotic Magic Revised
A major attempt to introduce a powerful system of magic
into our modern western everyday life, thereby explosively expanding
such concepts as sex, human relationships. The clear, down-to-earth
text is amplified by the non-linear trance illustrations by LaBash. Visit this page for ordering information.
"It just took us a decade to get this expanded version out!
It is a practical source book for living magic. I have greatly deepened
it to include where the work has gone since we first published it.
and, if that wasn't enough, we have packed it with even more LaBash
drawings! It even has a binding and a full-color insert! But the price
hasn't changed! Ok, I'll stop hyping it...but it's very useful!"

Deep Conversations In The Shaman's Den, Volume 1.
Frank Moore's Shaman's Den streamed live on the internet almost every Sunday night from 1998 until Frank's death in 2013. The Shaman's Den was a 21/2-hour variety show featuring in-studio concerts by bands from around the world and in-depth conversations about politics, art, music, and life.
In this volume, the first in a series, Frank and his guests explore a wide-open field of topics and present new, alternative ways of looking at everything from current economic and political situations to personal relationships. Visit this page for ordering information.

Art of a Shaman
Original photocopied edition. In Art of a Shaman, originally a lecture presented at N.Y.U., Frank Moore explores performance and art in general terms of them being a magical way to effect change in the world. He looks at performance as an art of melting action, ritualistic shamanistic doings/playings. By using his career and life as a "baseline", Moore explains the dynamic playing within the context of reality shaping. He brings in concepts from modern physics, mythology and psychology.

Vision Theater
by James D. Audlin
& Frank Moore
No Tongue Will Live to Speak/No Ears Will Yearn to Hear is a
play written by James D. Audlin (Chief Distant Eagle) and directed in
1994 by Frank Moore in Berkeley, California. Vision Theater is a book
made up of the daily e-mail conversations between Frank and Jim...both
as director and playwright and as two shamans...over the year-plus that
it took Frank to produce/direct the play. It is an in-depth examination
of the backstage process of doing a shamanistic drama (or any drama
for that matter)...the tricks, the pitfalls, the dynamics...and how
everyday life and the magically framed theater effect each other.
copyrighted 1994
SUGGESTED DONATION: $5
"The book (Vision Theater) is comprised of
the e-mail conversations between Frank and James (aka Chief Distant
Eagle) regarding a play James wrote and Frank directed called 'No Tongue
Will Live to Speak/No Ears Will Yearn to Hear'. The play itself is about
a tribe that is outside the 'civilized world'. One member leaves and
returns with an anthropologist who only wants to document the tribe's
activities and songs for a quick buck. The dilemma is that the tribe's
material could be misused, but when the tribe disappears so will their
history. The philosophy of life/death, nudity, sexuality, etc. is so
different from what Western society is used to that Frank has a hard
time casting the play, but eventually everything comes together and
the results sound pretty amazing. Sure wish I'd been fortunate enough
to witness this event back in '94; Mr. Peabody are you listening?" Bleeding Velvet Octopus #7, 1997
