Hi All,
First of all, the piece really feels like it is coming together, and I am personally having fun with it now( not like I ever didn't). Thanks for video of the rehersal. It was really clear to me just how much more intentional and defined each movement and expression should be. That's what I'm really working on now. I 'd like to more about what I should be projecting when I open my coat and show an image of the end.
I was wondering about the statistic part. Are the words set for that part..or are they intented to maintain some of the improvisational qualities that the movements themselves maintain? I liked the blah, apathetic quality of say "this is the one about melting polar ice caps..etc..." . Is that something you want to keep? Somehow, saying "this is a statisic about....ect" looses that irreverant apathy a bit......for me. I think playing off the deep dark nature of the content( ie, death of children,global warming, religion) of those stats with with a really read-able sense of blahhhhh would be interesting. I think it gets at the erroded sense of responsiblity and compassion we are able to feel with so many major threats to our humanity and planet. For me, it's not only funny, but that humor resonates with how people actually cope emotionally in realtion to THE END. I like it cause it reveals the ways in which life is both overwhealming and mundane all in the same day. How we as human beings walk that line????? THanks!!! Excuse my spelling, I don't think I ever really learned phonics..haha!!
