moving creativity choreography
Choreography and creativity - it's my matrix; let's see where we can move.
thinking mind body
For me, choreography is a process of physical thinking. It's very much in mind as well as in body.
Misbehave more beautifully; more often.
thinking technology body
I am now obsessed with the technology of the body. I think it's the most technologically literate thing that we have.
mean dancer watches
Dancers can get to see almost everything now. When I used to go into companies to make a piece, the dancers had hardly ever seen my work. Now they can watch it on YouTube. It means they're much faster at picking up material.
Once I'm working on something, I don't do anything else. I'm mono-track.
