Phanes

According to Damascius, Phanes was the first god "expressible and acceptable to human ears" (πρώτης ητόν τι ἐχούσης καὶ σύμμετρον πρὸς ἀνθρώπων ἀκοάς).[7] Another Orphic hymn states:[8] "You scattered the dark mist that lay before your eyes and, flapping your wings, you whirled about, and throughout this world you brought pure light. For this I call you Phanes. " The Derveni Papyrus refers to Phanes: "Of the First-born king, the neverend[9] one; and upon him all the immortals grew, blessed gods and goddesses and rivers and lovely springs and everything else that had then been born; and he himself became the sole one".[10] ("Πρωτογόνου βασιλέως αἰδοίου∙ τῶι δ’ ἄρα πάντες ἀθάνατοι προσέφυν μάκαρες θεοὶ ἠδ̣ὲ θέαιναι καὶ ποταμοὶ καὶ κρῆναι ἐπήρατιο ἄλλα τε πάντα , ἅ̣σσα τότ’ ἦγγεγαῶτ ’ , αὐτὸς δ’ ἄρα μοῦνος ἔγεντο.”)

Quinquennial Essentials with Above the Empire

Mooney Editor-in-Chief Here around New Slang, we sometimes “steal” great (or at least interesting) ideas to use. When I first was talking to Tyler Hardy, 25, about what his instrumental solo project Above the Empire was and what I should expect on Sunday night when he opened for Daniel Hart, he started off by informing me that it was all instrumental, it was all acoustic guitar, and was just one long thirty-minute piece that he’s been working on for roughly a year. 5-Amazing Grace A Capella At the age of five, I was spending a lot of time with my great-grandmother, who was part of the Church of Christ, and everything sung in church is A Capella, so a lot of my first song memories are older hymns. 10-”I got a Girl”-Tripping Daisy from “I Am an Elastic Firecracker” I didn’t really listen to much at this age but the country music my mother listened to.
