| | Ghost Dance |
| | Known as the messiah to his followers, Wovoka was the Paiute mystic whose religious pronouncements spread the Ghost Dance among many tribes across the American West. | | | In 1889, Wovoka saw visions that foretold the coming of a messiah who would help the Indians regain their lost land and bring their dead ancestors back to life. | | | His invocation of a "Supreme Being," immortality, pacifism and explicit mentions of Jesus (often referred to with such phrases as "the messiah who came once to live on earth with the white man but was killed by them") all speak of an infusion of Christian beliefs into Paiute mysticism. |

| | Wovoka's message of peace and brotherhood was overshadowed by his prophecy of the disappearance of the whites and the return of Indian traditions. | | | They said that they traveled far until they came to a great flat valley near the last great mountains before the big water, and there they saw the Wanekia who was the son of the Great Spirit, and they talked to him. | | | American Indian Prophecies is not about the end of the world but, rather, a change of worlds--the beginning of a new Earth cycle. |

| | It began in 1889, when a Paiute named Wovoka fell into a trance and returned to consciousness preaching that by performing a circular dance and adhering to certain principles of virtuous and peaceful living, Indians could restore their lands and recover their own deceased ancestors. | | | Nevertheless, Wovoka's Ghost Dance continued to prevail among some people, and Wovoka remained a visible and influential prophet and shaman until his death in September 1932. | | | But Wovoka's followers performed the ritual for several days and sought visions as the culmination of the activity. |

With this piece I invented and first experimented with my style of fragmentation. |

| | Wovoka - Bruno Bouchet |
| | Conosciuto come il Messia tra i suoi seguaci, Wovoka era il mistico Paiute le cui teorie religiose diffusero la Ghost Dance tra le molte tribù indiane dell'ovest americano. | | | Per quanto oggi la Ghost Dance sia vista qualche volta come espressione della militanza indiana e come il desiderio di preservare le tradizioni indigene, i dettami di Wovoka furono, ironia della sorte, contrassegnati dal pesante marchio della cristianità. | | | Le sue invocazioni ad un supremo principio, infatti, eternità, pacifismo e l'esplicito riferimento a Gesù (spesso ricordato con frasi tipo "...il Messia che venne sulla terra per vivere con gli uomini bianchi e fu ucciso da loro stessi."), fa affermare a molti la certezza di una vena di cristianità nel misticismo Paiute. |
