Re: My lecture (Ruth Spivak) II

I envy you for that one!

yes, Ruth, today's class was extremely amazing on many levels. Shannon is a great teacher and host. She had prepared the students so their questions were deep and complex, coming to my work from wherever their individual passions were... Politics, Justice, intimacy, music, playing, etc... But getting my work. And the skype video online phone created a two-way intimacy. It is like being in a cave together, seeing and hearing one another. Just that opens both a new dimension /medium for performance and a new type of performance... Without space that you need to travel through to get to the performance... True, there is no physical touch between physical bodies. But there may be ways to get around this. One student said she was interested in doing a private performance with me in this way, and there was talk of doing a three hour performance with me here and them there in North Carolina in their theater. This opens a lot up!

In Freedom,
