Into the ether

4/17/2015

While waiting for my to-go order last week, I picked up a copy of Number : Inc, issue number 81. I was flipping through rather nonchalantly, until I saw these three words... Into the Ether. Whoa. It is like, in the movies, when a character arrives a certain place, not necessarily a physical one, and then a reel of ALL the moments that happened before in order for the character to arrive HERE NOW, come cascading like water. At that moment, I came to the realization of how comfortable I have become living in the ether. Things are softer there. There are a lot of grey areas. You can easily avoid the uncomfortable, just kind of float in the in-between space.  This process of Meat Space Diaries has been, at times, like a hard slap across the face. A push, sometimes even a shove, out of the grey and into Technicolor.

Glad to help nudge you out of the ether. :-) I feel the same way when I try to do what's so natural for other dance makers, which is memorize and repeat movements. When I'm improvising, I am definitely "into the ether" myself. Collaboration is risky; we ask each other to do what we're good at, but also what we don't know anything about sometimes.
Thank you dear one.
