“That moment can’t be repeated, but it’s a trained moment, it’s prepared for, and comes out of everything that’s happened before. It can be like you are not even there. It goes right through you.”

“everyone’s an observer including yourself. You’re the activator but you’re also the observer to all this, reacting and hearing what’s happening all at once. You’ve got all this stuff going through you and you don’t stop it and you don’t hold it”.  (The Knowing Body: The Artist as Storyteller in Contemporary Performance, 1995)

.... but I would say you pay attention to it.

We are always in relationship.
