And the winner is....

...no one!

I found one entry submission in my spam folder - oops!  I have no idea how many others might have been in it and got deleted forever.  Unfortunately that one entry was amusing but incorrect.

So you all have a second chance!  I'm extending the contest for one week and to make it easier I'm putting all the questions here and I'm rewording some of them so they are more clear.



REVISED & EXTENDED MAGE MUSIC CONTEST QUESTIONS


Question 1:
Who of the following did Jimmy Page meet with and discuss Magick?
  • Aleister Crowley 
  • Jareth, the Goblin King 
  • Louis H. Sullivan 
  • Pierre Teilhard de Chardin 
  • Thomas Carlyle 
  • William Burroughs 

Question 2:
What are the names of the following:
  1. The black avatar of arts - that creator and trickster - is an omen of omens (clue: his animal form)
  2. He reminds us of another rising into a red sky with the burden of humanity (clue: the light bearer)
  3. We hear the music and Magick of what Master? (clue: look in the URL)

Question 3:
  • Embryo No. 1 and Embryo No. 2 were both presented in what video?
  • What was No. 2's original name?
Submit your answers to fasterhorses@gmail.com no later than 11:59:59 PM MST (Denver time) Saturday December 21 (Winter Solstice).  

Put the word CONTEST in the subject line.

Good luck!

Contest update

I'll be out of town Friday & Saturday and though I scrambled to get the last question plus the whole contest form done before leaving, I didn't get it done.  So I'm sorry, but there'll be a delay till Sunday.

Contest Question 3

It's all very confusing: Embryo No. 1 and Embryo No. 2. They both made an appearance in the same place. But here's the thing - even though No. 2 is named No. 2, it actually came first. How do we know? Embryo No. 2 was born from music that was performed live on stage nearly ten years before and No. 1 never has been.

Maybe it's all about the names. Maybe it's all Magick in the making.  Maybe one piece leads to the next or maybe the music leads us to a masquerade that hides the answer.
Where do we find both No. 1 and No. 2?
What was No. 2's original name?
You might have to go outside of Mage Music to figure this one out, but the links are all there.

Contest Question 2

Finding meaning in everything

1.  The black avatar of arts - that creator and trickster - is an omen of omens
2.  He reminds us of another rising into a red sky with the burden of humanity
3.  And thereby we hear the Master.

What are the names?
