Pillow Talk- I loved the intimate, sensual, universal meaning of the pillows.  I loved the dancing in white, with legs and neck.  I loved the act of just being, no story line, just moveming simply with pillows, the piece existed in Giselle's face.

"What’s missing is a world created from the inside out."-when concept is greater than body involvement. 

"moving with the quiet focus of a small animal used to hiding from predators." would be interesting to put that quality on my body.

Beyonce v/s Keersmaker video-

I just saw the clips side by side.  Wow, does Beyonce have no integrity?  Surely she knew better than to do that?!

I loved the non concept, the non linear, the open dancing, the beautiful simplicity, the video art, the music, I feel like I'm trying to make a story, I hate making stories, its uninteresting to me.
