Both the contemporary lyric poem and contemporary dance speak, explicitly or obliquely, to the separation between the speaking, moving self and their ungovernable experiences of the world; dance scholar Linda Caruso Haviland notes that the disappearing trace of the moving self is a crucial fact of witnessing dance performance. In response to Williams’ poems, dancer/choreographer Ashley Anderson and videographer Nora Price have created a three movement multimedia dance composition, with vignettes of a dancer moving in and through reclaimed images of the past. Using your phone camera, scan the QR codes you encounter within this printed book, and you will be taken to segments of the dance, as well as still images from the dance composition, and audio recordings of the poet reading the poems.
