Today Søren is teaching me how to manipulate my new website. I am completely overwhelmed with how many colors I have to choose from, borders, font sizes, texts...

So, please forgive the mess. In time I will be more comfortable!

Here is a fun photo of my last day at the University of

Texas at Austin, at our "Senior Send-Off". The man happily encased in my arms is Yacov Sharir, one of the most cherished of teachers in my life, and probably in the world. It was a glorious goodbye, as you can tell.

Using choreography created simultaneously with the music that accompanies it, lights operated from an onstage homemade light board, set pieces moving as part of the choreography, and electronic melodies combined with acoustic percussion, this dance/movement, music, and lights performance piece will explore performance semiotics at their core. The production team will also create a performance-world that can be erected in a minimal amount of time, in any venue, using homemade lights and set pieces.
