Excited and hopeful.

I just found out that we have been approved for fiscal sponsorship through Fractured Atlas! This is fantastic. More on that later. Tomorrow, the video camera comes out in rehearsal. Check back again soon for more updates.

Duo Sling

More successful partnering on the slings today...we figured some fun things out, and learned that we all can base and fly. Pretty fun. I am happy about the organic process that we are finding, through trust and joy. Looking forward to being in the studio again next week.

The Single Point!

Ahhh, what a lovely rehearsal we had today. Sadly Browyn wasn't there today, but Aimee, Amanda and I got some great work done. We did two different improvisation exercises on the single point trapeze, which was super inspiring and fun to watch and participate. There were many moments of clarity for our different characters, and the movement was both thoughtful and organic. I have grand visions of projecting images onto the moving bodies...that is the next step then...bringing the video camera to rehearsal, and recording the improvisations. It is time to start piecing the moments together...whoopee!

Improvisations.

Today Aimee and I did a few improvisations on the single point trapeze...took a few moments to get in the groove, but it proved fun and inspiring. It feels so good to work with someone who understands my language as an artist, and who is strong in their own artistry. Sigh...I have been longing for this.
Wednesday we work as a whole group again. Check back in.

Bungee legs!

We tried to drill holes in the beams yesterday to no avail. The drill wasn't powerful enough, so alas, we didn't get to rig all of our slings into the rehearsal space. Just another day in the life of an artist. We have a lot of work to do. The bungees work well though, and are a lot of fun. Afterwards I still had the feeling that I was bouncing in the air, kind of like sea legs...bungee legs! More soon.

Bungee!

I have finished the working music score for rehearsals tomorrow, and I am super excited about it. We are going to be starting work on the slings, including adding a bungee pack to the top. Yay for buoyancy! Check back again for more pics and video soon.
