Bumping Alisha’s post

Reading Alisha Jihn’s Cycle 3: PALIMPSEST post and viewing the accompanying videos was insightful. It provided a clear example of how projections can be used in a concert dance context. I’ve encountered Alisha’s work before, both in movement and technology, and seeing her process, her iterations, questions, and curiosities resonated with me.

Her approach reminded me that stepping away from a piece and returning to it later can offer fresh eyes and new ideas. It also reinforced the idea that just because I can add more to a work doesn’t mean I should. Sometimes, subtraction can be more effective than addition.
