"If a really prestigious university could get a big enough research grant, they could do an epic study of artistic collaboration, and probably prove that it’s impossible."







"Dance critics must be generalists. In the field of music; there are specialists in pop, opera, and everything in between, and they tend not to cross lines. Dance critics are expected to be able to review hip-hop to Odissi to ballet, but it's a bit of denial to assume they're equipped to do so. At least responsibly. But in a shrinking field covering an impoverished art form, we don't have the luxury of specialists."

Reading about 20-somethings, drinking from a 20-something mug and prepping for rehearsal for a 20-something’s dance. Excellent. (Taken with instagram)
