No No No, No No No

“No to the glamour and transcendency of the star image. No to the heroic. No to the anti-heroic.”

Yvonne Rainer, No Manifesto
30th sentence of the 30 Movements cycle

No, no, no.
I don’t want to be a photo on a website.
I don’t want to be converted into a PDF document, I don’t want to become a file number.
I don’t want to be a link in the planetary graveyard of Google searches.
My chaotic head is not a document to be formatted, converted, edited, categorised and catalogued.
My bones cannot yet be sprinted on A4.
I am not yet history. I am not yet a quotation. I am not yet a memory.
I am not an ex-dancer. I am not an ex-performer. I am not an ex-artist.
No, no, no.
