LETTER FROM THE EDITORS
First of all we’d like to thank Otto Ramstad for his contribution in the Tuesday Issue, “Whole Room Resonation” (pg. 8), a useful and sympathetic consideration of dancer-as-DJ. This brings us to our next point: omissions, misprints, elisions, remixes and refractions will only accumulate as the week progresses. The process of developing content, concept, production value, layout and distribution strategy has certainly sparked discourse about our aims, ethics, successes and failures. This is our aim. And our target. The printed page is not capable of forgiveness and reinterpretation. But is discourse? We accept our mistakes in perpetuity, and value all of our readers. This project’s success depends on you as much as it depends on us, for we are all contributors. We are trying to read our surroundings: physical, personal, conceptual, local and choreographic. We sincerely excuse ourselves for misrepresentation and misquotation, but will not stray off course. As Janet Panetta said in the teacher’s workshop on Saturday, “Anything worth doing, is worth doing badly.”
Dress me up, dress my town Build a look, break it down Meet you at the lounge round about ten Hope you’ve had a shower by then The Arsenale bombed, way back when Before Release became the pretty pig in the pen Elizabeth Ward is a martial dancer The structure of logic won’t hold the answer
With love and happinesss, The Inpex
We’re over fame Bettering oneself is not so lame Don’t look now we stand behind you We read, we write, without a clue Research is over-rated For too long we’ve waited We’re taking it back to public space The human race, Is a market place
