Chisake

'Chìsake' is an Algonquin expression for: to chant; to conjure; to cast a spell. This generally involves a shake-house or shaking tent, in which the conjurer goes into a trance. The use of authentic instruments created by this Native American tribe, along with multi-phonic oscillation from "throat rattling" vocalization of the tonic note creates a state of trance which correlates with the Chìsakewininì ceremonial actions.
