Description

The Village Dance

A reflection on how bodies practice places and how these practices might be part of experiencing and re imagining a village...
Simon talks about a current preoccupation with the realm of social ecology, on how people practice and make sense of their environment and interact together. He discusses the strategies and propositions he employs that invite an individual to be part of something that is bigger than their individual being. A cluster of experiences, sometimes dances, that may amplify and inculcate resonance or joy and help to build an unbounded sense of village and communitas.
