shapes

There are configurations of arranged physical details and then there are shapes that have come about through time---usually the two are intermixed and interdependent. Today one of my aerial students was working on a double hoop act where we want to keep most of the movement off the ground, but incorporate the ground-to-air neccesity as part of the piece. I often see the trajectories of my friends lives in the same way--but from a distance, having had nothing to do with their actual choreography (except perhaps as a character therein). These shapes are their logos, fantastical & purposeful constructions often appearing as writing in light in a darkened place.
Again, I think: campfires
or maybe finger painted starlight
