How to measure success
The thesis doula, Gayla Lindt, asked me how I would know if I were successful in my site-based experiments. It was a really interesting question to consider since applying a real world context to the work brought in a dramatically new element. I think the answer lies in several places. First, have I interpreted and […]

Loie Fuller
Joe Chvala (more on my meeting with him soon) suggested that I look at the work of Loie Fuller as I consider dance’s relationship with fabric.
