Sex, digital technology, indescribable variations of gender identity, and a party atmosphere which demands of the guests to be at ease with nudity, sex and a general laissez-faire, n’ importe quoi, joie de vivre? It could be just another night in any Berlin club worthy of its name, if not for the chance of starring in a movie that combines the meta-modern doomed replicants-in-love scenarios of Blade Runner, the anarchic humor of a John Waters DIY opera buffa, and the ornate gender semiotics…

It seems like there is always something to do better.

It can be a motivated thought but it can be also discouraging.



So what is it that makes something "work"? That makes you say "this is it"?

Its not that first I wanted to create and then I had to think about what to create, but it was more like the inspiration brought this urge to me.

Then, I found the material- the people I want to work with. The people that understands me, that interest me, and that share interests with me.

Ever wonder how online instruction in higher education is going to impact dance? Might teaching composition courses online add a layer of richness on top of physical practice? Perhaps, so long as administrations don't reduce our course content to online instruction.



In MOOCing?, a new composition that I am working on for UC Berkeley students, I will choreograph and set a dance remotely. Of course distance collaboration is nothing new to the arts, but under the heading of "online… Continue
