I keep thinking that the dance community is a tribe of embodied thinkers. Folks who share an embodied cognition proclivity. The tricky part being we’ve associated dance with specific performance traditions, but that doesn’t seem to be the strongest unifier in my eyes.

Sometimes folks ask me why I’m always talking about disciplines when we’re all in this multi/inter/postmedia milieu. It’s because funders and audiences still are very interested in boxes. In labels. It’a a human thing. We want to know where you’re coming from, and we want to know fast.

I have this new thought which is to take one label and let it be everything, and I think that is what you just did for dance above. Dance artist employs everything at his/her disposal to get his/her point across. Yes.

I’m excited for your year of dance!
