and then ...

As a result of the symposium and the roundtable discussion, Jacob Zimmer (dramaturge and animateur at Dancemakers) and Megan Andrews (publisher/founding editor of The Dance Current) began working together to develop Jacob's study group concept. Thinking Out Loud is the collaborative initiative that resulted.

It's an experiment.

We meet monthly (we being a small and fluctuating group of interested artists and arts professionals from across disciplines, practices and generations) to discuss an article or two that we circulate in advance of the meeting. Jacob and Megan facilitate the discussion, with the help of Dancemakers' interns Kari Pederson and Leora Morris. Participants help shape the discussion and suggest readings. Following the meetings, we'll post some reflections here and anyone is welcome to comment.
