See also the chapter on Khun Daeng, "Outside, eyeless, and on fire" in Ros Morris' otherwise not entirely awesome In the Place of Origins: Modernity and Its Mediums in Northern Thailand. That chapter alone is worth getting the book for. Ummmm... here.

Evocative imagery - though you generally post the most interesting pictures.
If one hasn't yet - do a search for 'Theyyam dancers' and literally hundreds of versions of the red dressed Balinese fellow(?) above will come up.
