Survival – finding the dance, finding our way, staying

Toolkit :

  • What I’ve assembled through practice
  • Pathways, reflexes, ownership & enjoyment of use
  • The tools themselves get worn & become personalized
  • The tools get better (proved better outcomes through use)

Manifesto :

  • Aesthetics & values within the dance
  • How we craft layers
  • How your partner perceives you
  • How you’re being seen
  • How we care about that perception

We chose to dance in a trio and include the option to report (verbally) in relation to survival, manifesto, toolkit

Our score -> in movement
