we have costumes, we have music, we have plane tickets. . .

It's really happening!  We're so excited.  Big shout out to Case Van Rij who stepped up (over and over again) to help us reach our goal as well as the 61 other individuals that contributed.

Rachel Ravitch designed five beautiful shirts.  Jeff tweaked some music.  Adam deliberated and refined the video.

Look out Philly.  Here comes a band of weirdos.

Dear, "Dynamic," I forsake you this week.   What could be more important than a commitment to understanding my body's perceptual knowledge and to push through the discomfort and inconvenience of being a performing artist each and every day?  Not very many things, but those few things shaped almost every single minute of every day this week.  I tried to practice you riding my bike, in shavasana, laying sick in bed, in the hospital waiting room, and staring at the still canvases of James Benning's remake of Easy Rider.   I failed.  I will probably fail again.   It's actually a relief.
