What do you LACK? What do you GAIN? What do you NEED?

Imagining this might be this as an economically propogated/culturally specific issue?

I want to dance 'with' you not 'at' you. I want to hear your heart beat pulsing beside mine. I want to catch a glimpse of whimsy, excitement, uncertainty in your eyes. I want to 'read' your movements.

Our human connection is at stake! A connection that reminds us we are flesh and blood; interconnected beings, that communicate with each other on multiple levels via the "live" body and its somatic intelligence.

What I mean is the digital space and Artificial Intelligence is permeating almost every aspect of life. As a result we are slowly losing emotional intelligence - feelings we experience in the body within a shared physical environment. So our inner "GPS" that guides us - helps us sense each other within space, is slowly being compromised; perhaps to the point where the actual physical body becomes redundant - or becomes a mechanical instrument rather than a feeling body. I think this will have a direct impact on the dancing body itself... When we can no longer 'read' each other's body language (ie: bodily cues) by being in the same physical space and interacting with each other physically/emotionally/energetically, how we connect/dance/ will inevitably change. I don't know how it will change, but it will. I think the shift to virtual life/living/dancing is a prepping us for what's coming down the pipe. Which may redefine what dance "is."

I think we are slowly losing the body as we once knew it to be.
