In the podcast, French dancer and choreographer Ashley Chen discusses his multicultural background and its impact on his work. He delves into the collaborative project "Outside Flow," created with his filmmaker brother Peter Steven. This innovative venture explores the unnoticed gestures of outdoor labor, incorporating the movements of various workers into the choreography. Filming in diverse locations, from urban landscapes in Los Angeles and New York to natural settings, adds unique dimensions to the project. Chen highlights the importance of showcasing individuality within the group, fostering unity and appreciation for diversity. "Outside Flow" transcends traditional dance by providing an immersive experience, prompting audiences to acknowledge and respect the often-overlooked contributions of workers, ultimately promoting a message of tolerance and understanding.
