CounterPulse Spring 2017 Season Announcement

2017-08-01T02:02:35-07:00By |Categories: edge residency, Jesse Hewit, meg stuart, season announcement, spring 2017, Uncategorized|

CounterPulse Spring 2017 brings forth a milieu of performance makers for a season of works that will be respite from and resistance to the powers that be. We make space this spring season for risk, pleasure, solidarity, conflict, and futurity. CounterPulse is your home for radical ridiculousness, dissident discomposure, and all adjacent anarchic alliterations ; ) We take stock to look forward with our collaborative presentation of Lost and Found: Bay Area Edition, with SFMOMA’s Open Space and Danspace, investigating

way way way back in APRIL (!!!!!!!!), Emily Leap and I sat down and wrote a letter to the three people who would later be our Portland guest artists for the June Residency and the TBA premiere that's happening in 2 weeks. We wanted to give them some kind of something that would let them start to understand us and get let in on some of the things this project has been doing and thinking about. It's now last August,

tell them that you saw wings

last post. i am scared to ever self present again. CounterPULSE has spoiled me absolutely rotten. Jessica, Andrew, Hae-Jin, Estacia, Ryan, Julie, Roz, Margarita, Meleta, and Cameron...my lord, what solid supporters. I am calm. The performers of  'Tell Them That You Saw Me' are holding this work with fire and commitment. Long live the sextet: Anna, Erika, Julie, Loren, Maryam, and Shawnrey. Mica has designed looks for the show that are chokingly startlingly strong. Andrew was crafted my lighting ideas

A self portrait

I wish I could say that I came to it on my own, but I didn't. Yesterday's work-in-progress showing was very important for the development of this work. And I'm feeling pretty emotional about it right this second. The question/"issue"/conflict of me as a male auteur, making this work very much ON the women of this company has always been a beast. Initially, there were ways of trying to do some sort of damage control, ie: The work would include

building things

2016-03-18T22:46:54-07:00By |Categories: Artists in Residence, CounterPULSE, Jesse Hewit|Tags: , |

Today is May 27th, 2010...that never gets old. So, Tell Them That You Saw Me (which I'm realizing is kind of a very Miranda July-esque title...funny how subconscious influences work on us) is being built.  Julie, Maryam, Loren, Shawnrey, and Anna are all pretty much on fire. I'm learning not to fixate so much on identifying dominant themes, and instead trusting the work to kind of reveal itself as it will. Now that Julie's back from Croatia, we've been having

Writing that title makes me remember my self-scripting teacher in undergrad, Rosemary Quinn, and how she would so clearly and ritualistically STATE the date at the opening and closing of each of our sessions. It has stuck with me. And its funny, I use it for all sorts of things. When I'm having a sad or rough patch in my day (or week or year for that matter), I tend to find some sky to look up at, and I
