Have just returned from a dance performance by the Mark Morris dance troupe. Its been my first experience at such a performance - the dancers had fluid movements - perfect balance which was displayed by various ballet like poses and forms. They moved about like nimble fairies in the park and yet were so firm in their grasps.
There were a couple of separate performances each with a different theme - there was one that was based on a lullaby, one called the candledance and a last was the grand duo. I was totally impressed with the near perfect balance and precise movements. although it was described as romantic waltzes, I could see traces of ballet, jazz and sometimes even forms of the Indian bharatnatyam.
I am glad i could make time in the midst of all my other activities to attend this performance. The last performance that i attended at the power center was a theater production that was called the Disappearing Number. I was totally awed by the Inidan mathematician Ramanujan - it was based on hs life and his discoveries and theories. Could not believe that they actually spoke about convergent and divergent series in the show. I wish they had tried to prove how the sum of the infinite series of nautural numbers tends to -1/12!!
There seems to be so much happening at the University - so much to do and so little time - learning how to prioritze seems to be the key in surving grad school - can't believe that the weekend is half way down so soon - and I am still at the top of my to do list aawwww.
my last hoorah to on-the-side wedding gown projects!
