Ha, I can understand this Zolt… but for me, I absolutely love hurling myself around the dancefloor, regardless of how it may look. If others get a laugh out of it, then so be it I guess it’s a bit more acceptable in these crazy Central American warehouses than the clubs of NYC.

“I choose not to dance for the mental welfare of others”

That’s crap. What a cop out. You can’t blame your refusal to dance on the judgmental opinions of others. You’d never do that with your writing, so why do it with your dancing.

Dancing is fundamental. Everyone gets the urge but few have enough confidence to indulge it.
Men who dance are dead sexy. I love watching goofy-looking guys dance awkwardly. Like you, they’re probably aware that they aren’t Baryshnikov, and yet they refuse to deny themselves the joy of dancing simply because others may judge them. That degree of self-confidence is extremely attractive.
When a guy tells me he won’t dance because he “can’t” I immediately drag him onto the dance floor.

Seriously Zolton, stop encouraging people to not dance.
It’s a disservice to your patrons.

[...] Nice thematic work from Sydney-based artist, Miriam Chatt, who ‘makes art in her free time to fully satiate her appetite for colours, textures and shape. She has a CMYK chart on her wall and can wax expertise on typography, but she can also knit your nana into shame. Her obsessions include maps, masquerade and textiles and her work is interested in the aesthetic tensions of consciousness and anatomy’. This photo is part of a series of self-portraits shot in a structured setting. ‘I have hand made coloured filters similar to those attached to Holga Cameras, resulting in thematic, spectral images exploring concepts of identity, displacement, masquerade, sexuality, loneliness, and youth’. They will be on display as part of an exhibition at Mori Gallery, Darling Harbour, Sydney, between September 6 and October 4. [see also Caroline McCredie; Terry Palka] [...]
