I am adding this blog post for the readers that are curious in finding out how I am choosing what I feel is important or interesting, how I connect everything and why I am writing them on the blog.
The academic readings are mandatory readings for our MA Choreography, but are also mandatory for our careers later as choreographers. We have been being taught of what choreography, choreographic strategies, dance facilitation, research and now performance art is; tools that will be greatly used to expand our horizons and think out of the box we have been into.
You can see that in my definition of choreography and the latest posts I am writing on how I change this definition over time.
In my posts I’ve been using quotes and shapes I find interesting and I add many ideas from our earliest readings that I believe connect to the big debates we are having and studying.
Also, there are other readings, such as about Marina Abramovic’s Seven Easy Pieces, which are less extended, although the articles were full of information and ideas. The reason for that is that I am not a critic, I don’t want to be any, while I believe we ought to take some elements that may affect our future works or -at least- way of thinking.
Isn’t that what dance does to us?
It enchants us and make our brain think creatively (and maybe emotionally).
