current studio practice
drawn to this resonance / reference thing, movement-wise, still. diving deeper into it. it is feeling inappropriate at times (like dancing to music), which is probably a residue of WAC-minded consciousness (“appropriation,” stealing, infringing…). unclear yet: what questions will i pose towards it? what this the direction, my larger intention?
i have been finding the drive of my current practice, which includes
1. DANCING TO MUSIC and enjoying it
2. WRITING - a la Simone Forti. at times bordering on dance therapy, then psychological processing, other times pragmatic planning, “lesson planning” for potential workshops…. a huge mix of stuff spilling out of me every time. scattered notes everywhere, physical and virtual ones.
3. KLEIN TECHNIQUE stretches (what i remember of it)
4. MOVEMENT RESEARCH in-between all of the above, unfocused yet specific, very unorganized, disjointed, ADD. combined with awareness practice as usual.
it’s a fun mix and seems to just be right (and has been for a while, without me recognizing its parameters).
against single-mindedness, for multiplicity, for distraction, for diversion, for quick edits and changing foci, for fullness and richness.
ahhh. wild mind practice.
this will lead to something for a performance in Landau early this July, organized by my dear friend Liam Clancy from San Diego. keep updated by following the blog, or subscribing to sparse emails. or by stopping by at my rehearsal space.
