Connections and flow

I have been really surprised lately how one thing leads me to another.  How things are connected and flow.  I truly believe this for me is an evolution in my thinking.   This has proved positive in ideas, events, people and performances I have experienced lately, so many good things are coming to fruition.  I can see something does come out of everything.  My daughter and I went to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on the day I handed in my Module 1 we took a trip to London.  In the show the magical thing about Charlie is that he makes 'something out of nothing' Willy Wonker 2013
What a great idea and in the end things really take a turn for him and his family.

Also going to observe Janet's and Alison's presentation was another thing that was a connection to my ideas this week and how watching and listening to them has penetrated my week and my practice especially with imagery. I didn't realise how much I use it with my teaching and as I became aware of this I used it even more and elaborated on the ideas with my students.

Also the actual movement's and artistry of Alison's work the drawings and the way the Cecchetti movements were recorded by flows of coloured light.  It was wonderful to see the artistry of dance recorded in a different medium, very mesmerising.

Well done your presentations were so clear and interesting.  I could see that you had a real commitment and passion to your subject. Which brought me to myself.  I hope I find my subject feel as passionate about it as you showed.
