In terms of history, the humanities show was how we were, why we were, and while we were...But then I also think about the future. You know. What are we doing now? What seeds are we planting to inform the future...And I said it earlier about making sense out of a chaotic universe where bad things happen to good people. Arts will help you figure that out.

Creativity is perhaps the ultimate mystery. I veer wildly between opposing views on it and have different feelings depending on whether the creator is isolated or a collaborator.

Highlights
I guess the part that's our thing is the method or process that Renée Jaworski was describing. The constraint, the framework that we try to put on what we're doing includes that, for this time, let's not map everything out first and try and realize the vision that one person has but to put people together, as Renée was saying, and have something else emerge that's a product of everybody that's involved. Penn Jillette, who we were honored to work with, the way he put it is, "You're not a collective, you're not looking the same, talking the same, you don't use the same terms for movement. All the dancers look different, and they think differently as well. –MATT KENT
