I agree with Annie, and want to add the list is a community, work and discussing ranging from personal to lab to collab, but it's all with others; even with the pieces I put up, created for the most part out of context here, are always within context, always collab (rarely commented on, probably not read/watched/heard that much), that collab comes from without as well as within, collab is transported. Oddly DIWO sounds sexual as well (perhaps others have pointed that out), touching (literally) on the dance-work we've been doing with others (short however of doing _it_). I do feel if I were in England I'd be visiting everyone I could face-to- face, which is still for me the best kind of intimacy; I've met for example Simon Biggs, which was wonderful, so in a way I hear/see him through his words here. And it's an odd list, with people emotionally intimate at times as well, which is a gift. I've not been able to collab in a formal sense here, generally I'm uncomfortable with that. As far as manifestos go, they've always been a problem for me (as are most political and artistic pronouncement, protocols, protocol sentences). As far as welcoming people to this (or other lists), I've almost never been welcomed myself, that doesn't seem how most lists, even communal lists, work, and as I said above, my work's rarely commented on, so be it; I have to take responsibility for that as well as for my untoward production. - Alan
