"Chaotic Harmony is not a training film. Yet it provides an instructive spiritual guided tour on a Taiji journey through the whimsical eye of Master Hon and the perceptive ear of Philip Glass. Like the intricate Taiji movements of Jade Maiden Weaving, these artists bind a tapestry of classical Taiji movements, poetry, contemporary dance, street theater, and lyrical chants with strands of voice and cello. This is a work to be experienced and explored like the penetrating art of Taiji. In this film, Master Hon and Philip Glass collaborate to combine ancient Daoist alchemy and modern art forms to create a contemporary shamanistic experience that takes place in the parks, streets, and subways of New York City. Master Hon anchors the film with the 600-year-old Wu Dang Dragon Taiji Form around which the flowing themes of the film's music, dance, and poetry orbit. Paralleling the Taiji form and Yi Jing (Book of Changes), the film evolves from Wuji (the void), to Hundun (chaos), to Taiji, yin and yang, and the myriad of things and takes the viewer on a mystical journey between earth and heaven."...
