It was another of many highlights in this busy year of travel and performances. Congratulations to curators Mary Wycherley and J\u00fcrgen Simpson, and Dance Limerick’s Jenny Traynor and Lisa Hallinan for such a rich and smooth running program. I was involved in the three components of the event: attending the Screendance Lab<\/strong> facilitated by Doug Rosenberg, Katrina McPherson, Simon Fildes and\u00a0J\u00fcrgen Simpson; presenting a performed paper Improcinemaniac<\/em><\/strong> in the Symposium; and the screening of my latest screendance Red Rattler<\/em><\/strong> in the Festival Installations.<\/p>\n

It was great to finally meet some of the screendance artists whose work I have admired from afar, to reconnect with those I continue to admire, and to meet some new artists whose work and words are rich, articulate\u00a0and visceral.<\/p>\n
