About the Author

Ll dance spaces (with their traditions, physical requirements, and gendered performances) can be considered political devices for the body and its practices. They are cultural zones where possible life forms are rehearsed—often unconsciously. They set in motion new probable and improbable relationships among bodies. The act of dancing brings to the fore the power of effect, of being affected and affecting, and articulates multiple layers that carry the pulse and trace of the past and the dreams of the future that make up the foundation of our society and existence.
