SO,
following up on my earlier mail it seems Troika Ranch has it pretty well 
figured out.....

However, from the POV of "performance art", I personally choose "showing" in 
favour of "telling" (that's the necessary narrative part...I mean I don't 
have any idea about WHAT to tell, other than HOW I show "it", which becomes 
the narrative itself, integral)......This being a particular way (ie. the 
showing aspect)of exploring the interface of dance and technology (which is 
to me, Body/Energy/Text...not necessarily letters on a page!)
WITHOUT a destination or pre-set goal...ie. an opening to discovery.....as 
in WHAT to SHOW.

A more interesting question is "How do our bodies interact with 
technology?"....and I don't mean in coarse, macro, or linear ways.

Now we all know Kami is Japanese for "god" (in whatever way the Japanese 
think of that, I suppose), while kami is simply paper

All those happy accidents are just glimpses of a much more profound 
interaction. Encouragement to continue the journey.
