[another tree dance] is a performance that translates, resolves, returns, and recuperates six years of doctoral study out of discipline. It is growing out of Karinne’s dissertation, a comparative study of experimentalism in performance and 19th century American literature, but is becoming a performance in conversation and collaboration with Sara Smith, fellow quietist, disciplinary saunterer, and choreographic mind.
