Push and Pull

August 22, 2008

The movement quality of thought or life consists of – pauses, resistance, difficult bits, sudden jumps or leaps, changes of direction, etc. Drama and engagement come from watching this happen in the body. We cannot directly communicate thought but we can tell by watching someone move what he or she is thinking. Everyone can relate to the struggle against or with a thought.

(Decroux?) “The body is the battleground of the mind … Mime makes movement with stops and curves and straight lines.”
