TO FACILITATE THE BEST VIEWING EXPERIENCE
This is an interactive experience. We welcome all friends who may wish to whirl, whether you have robes or not, to join in. You may wish to create some space for turning, perhaps light some candles and have some red roses or rose incense/oil.
We will be spotlighting several screens in the speaker view so you can see multiple whirling dervishes turning. Please ensure you are in SPEAKER view rather than gallery view to see all the dervishes.
Please note: the multiple spotlight view does not work on mobile devices, therefore we recommend you use desktops/laptops for this event.
If you have not used Zoom before, please allow time to install and test the software before the meeting time.
