On Research, Movement, and Mixing Mediums: An Interview with Ben Green

“Movement is just another language used to convey an emotional experience or fantasy. There are many things your body is capable of that you are not exactly consciously aware of and Gaga in particular allows you to continually surprise yourself because of its non-structure.

La Cité Jardin: Modern Urbanism in Strasbourg, Pt. 2

‘by Jeremy Allan Hawkins’

In Alsatian, “Stockfeld” means something like “field recently reclaimed from the forest,” and it was the name of a rural satellite village six kilometers south of Strasbourg.
