some good advice on the way out

This was such a amazing experience.
I got selected for a 100 collaborators group rehearsal on the turbine hall at the Tate Modern for Bristish -German contemporary artist Tino Seghal.
He calls his work "constructed situations", usually involving one or more people carrying out instructions conceived by him.
He is now collaborating with the Tate modern on a new project where he is being challenged to create a piece which works with people (humans) and the inhuman space relation between people and the enormous space.
The session questions was:
- how many people does it take to fill the turbine hall space (?)
- how can inter-relation movement sequences fill this overwhelming space (?)
- how far can human sound fill the space (?)
It was such a overwhelming, incredible, fantastic experience to move inside this space and to be a part of this project.
Met a couple of familiar dance faces, it was nice to see Adam again.
And again many people coming to me and assuming I am a professional dancer (sometimes it can be a bit annoying)- dont know why people think I am professional dancer, or a teacher (?) (?) (?)
And them the classic question: what do you do (?)
Well, my answer remains:
- I dance, but I am not a dancer.
- I take photos, but I am not a photographer.
- I draw, but I am not a fine art artist
- I write, but I am not a writer
This leaves people a little confused, they dont know how to fit me in theyre idea of professional world.
Well, I dont have to fit
I just simply have TO BE.
Its enough
And I sayed,
career and success
I delete these two words from my life
they are dangerous
Life is good.
Life is generous.
Thank you.
