This week I’m joined by dancer, writer, and podcaster, Rachel Elderkin. We discuss the origins of her podcast Dance Dialogues, the merits of podcasting as a medium to facilitate conversations around dance, and her approach to writing about dance. Through this we hit on a conversation about how if we can apply just as much creativity to how we talk about dance as to the artistic process itself, more diverse conversations can emerge. Between her podcast and artistic network, Sanctuary on the Fault Line, a network of female dance artists creating public performance in wild places, there is a DIY attitude about Rachel’s approach to dance that doesn’t wait for permission, but instead creates new dialogues, new paradigms. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.
