Interview with Michelle Ellsworth: Dance Artifacts and the Cloud



I interviewed Michelle Ellsworth before the premiere of her work http://www.tifprabap.org/ at Dance Theater Workshop in NYC.

She talked about her journey as dance soloist making connection between technology, religions and humanness.

In this episode I am experimenting with hyperlinking het video material/documentation to augment her words. I am using Viddler that allows you to create links and comment and more as dots in the timeline. So, hover over the dot… Continue

Words:

Hello, I am a little nervous, well, not nervous, just concerned that, well, I'm going public with "chatter" that may not matter. Oh, for those of you who know me a little, I am somewhat uncontrollable re: rhyming. If I had grown up in an other decade, or two, I know I'd be rapping.

I am right now here in Florida, if I were home, nyc, (the usual me) I probably would not feel justified in sending postcards from my room, but, now on Vacation, well, at least I can say the weather is sunny,… Continue

humor/genius

I had an interesting experience watching the work in progress of a choreographer the other day.

The piece put both together in an almost satisfying way, but there was a clear sense of two pieces in one. I left the performance and thought later about Woody Allen -- not the Bananas era, but the… Continue

I read a book he wrote and commented a lot about it on Artists Unite ISSUE here.

The cool thing is I was telling wendy about the film of his we just got from Netflix. I said, "this is my second favorite wim wenders movie. The first is Wings of Desire. The third is every other movie he made. The 2nd (the one I just got) is Lisbon story. It's almost a comedy. The character of the soundman, Winter, is so… Continue
