• Greco-Roman Amphitheater [80x60]

  “Yea, for these laws were not ordained of Zeus, And she who sits enthroned with gods below, Justice, enacted not these human laws. Nor did I deem that thou, a mortal man, Could’st by a breath annul and override The immutable unwritten laws of Heaven.”
  ~Antigone of Sophocles
  
  The ancient Greek theater was a place of entertainment, worship, and community-building. It would be a mistake to ascribe to it a one-dimensional function, or to think of it as the movie theater of today, where the spectators are sat in silence, observing the action taking place in front of them. The ancient audience would shout, heckle, cry, laugh, talk, and even try to argue with the actors, in an attempt to change the course of the play. It was a place where the soul was purified, what Aristotle called “catharsis”, through a complex psychological effect that the spectator achieved by empathizing with the main character during a tragedy. Between tragedies, the mood was lightened with comedies, which however played a vital role to the political and social life of the average citizens, as political figures and rulers were cleverly criticized and, sometimes, even ridiculed.

"High above the mortal realm, perched among the clouds, lay the enigmatic Skyward Dojo, home to the Rakshasa monks, masters of martial arts and ancient wisdom.
This celestial dojo appears like an exquisite pagoda, its sloping roofs and walls constructed with delicate woodwork and paper screens. Yet, unlike earthly dojos, it seems to float amidst the clouds, held aloft by an unseen force. Large, shoji screens invite the sky to paint its ever-changing masterpiece upon the tatami mat floors. Every morning, as the sun rises over the horizon, the dojo is enveloped in a warm, golden glow. This daily ritual allows practitioners to start their training sessions in harmony with the universe, forging a profound spiritual connection that transcends the physical realm."
