| Video Discription | Part Three - Yeli and Enchanting the Forest Most of the literature on Baka music concentrates on their “spirit dances”. What is actually meant by “spirit” is rarely, if ever, mentioned in the literature. In English the language for such things as “spirit” and “enchantment” have been heavily influenced by 1000 years of Christianity and given negative connotations, so the true meanings of words get lost in translation. There seems to be an underlying inference that belief in “spirits” is a primitive animistic practice, rather than a rational interpretation of a real phenomenon that is indirectly revered in Western society in art, performance and sport, but which is never spoken about. The Baka call this mé. Born in the rainforest you learn to “listen to the forest” at a very early age. In the forest you have no need for maps, no need for clocks. Each time of day, each physical space, has its own unique soundscape. In Part 3 we hear how the Baka women use their song to enchant the forest.
