Class description
We are holograms where each part is a whole. We are quadratic when we answer questions with neither a yes nor a no. We are organized when we drop 00 on the complete Kvissle desk organizer set from Ikea including cable management casket, letter tray and ubiquitous box with cork lid, set of 4. Drawing on my extensive work with Anne Teresa deKeersmaeker's Rosas as well as a host of others, this workshop will take a look what we're doing with all of our dancing stuff. What's my material? What's a tool? Am I building something? Where can i put it? Does that make me a craftsman? Can all of it be laser rendered holographically, smudged in to so many shades of gray or finely dismembered and stored in sleek interlocking cork boxes, set of 4?
