Poet @thedesertpearl Danabelle Gutierrez visits @SabynJaveri’s @NYUAbuDhabi class Real and Imagined: Women’s Writing Across Worlds and discussed her transition from writing novels to poetry.
She also talks about the ongoing conundrum: where is home? She grew up in 3-4 different countries. She started her time as a poetry focusing on Love Poetry. She admits that it was in part a shield to protect herself from being self-revealing.
Discussion of @RebeccaSolnit and the way that female poets often get classified as “confessional”. “Even if I wasn’t revealing elements of myself in my poetry, people were still interpreting it as “confessional.”

If you want to preserve your country and your culture, you must protect your language.

Dubai based Egyptian chanter @ZigZagGhanim visits Maya Kesrouany’s @nyuabudhabi Arabic literature class in advance of his performance at #Hekayah tonight.
Language is sacred, but not just because it’s the language of religion, but also because of the role it plays in human identity. Language is a living being.
When languages encounter other languages, they change and morph. @ZigZagGhanim’s music mixes classical language and modern forms (like house music) - question: is that encounter “fusion”?

Starting the first @NYUAbuDhabi class visit by @RaviColtrane to two classes combined. Music Technology Fundamentals and What is Music?

Ravi answers the first question.

Music is organized sound.
He goes on to talk about his parents @JohnColtrane and Alice Coltrane. They were pioneers in building a home studio in their house when he was a child. John passed away before he could use it, but Alice used it frequently.
He launches quickly into a discussion of sound, and the role that microphone choice profoundly influences his sound. He built his own recording studio in 1999, built around a Tascam early 24 track unit - tape and hard disc based. It changed everything. Then Pro-tools etc entered

In the wake of @NYUAbuDhabi Climate commitment yesterday, listening to the conversation on Creative Placemaking and the tension between cultural tourism vs serving local community via @GCDNet’a Adrian Ellis. Gonna listen to @AlserkalAvenue’s Vilma next

open.spotify.com/episode/1IEsvX…
Interesting conversations about what qualifies as quality of live and how the pandemic reshaped behaviors, needs, and wants, patterns of development and redevelopment. And what we need from our art.
As the conversations goes on, focus on values-based work in terms of behavior, and accountability, but also imagination, storytelling, expression and civic responsibility

This morning, @candocodance Artistic Director Charlotte Darbyshire talks to Lee Singh’s Movement and Meaning class in the @NYUAbuDhabi 1st Year Writing Program. Starts with a brief history of the company and how their decision making process functions.
They started with collective leadership. Eventually funding channels led them to more singular leadership. Post-pandemic they are again thinking about collective leadership, and majority led by people with disabilities.
Discussion about creative restrictions. Charlotte reflects that their limitations are primarily financial. The big curatorial consideration is balancing well-known choreographer/ reputation with riskier, lesser known choreographer

We start a dance workshop with @candocodance drawing from Jeanine Durning’s approach to “non-stopping”: “Start before you’re ready.”

#DanceReflections by @vancleefarpels at @NYUAbuDhabi
The next exercise is called “weaving.” It’s basically, we’ll be weaving.

Jeanine gave us some directions. No hesitation. Be unapologetic.

Ready?

Begin.
I think we can make our circle a little bit smaller.

Let’s give ourselves some real contact.
