This book is a demonstration of austerity. A mobilization of disadvantage and composition out of lack. Produced in a span of one day whilst nursing a flu, the pieces of dance in this compilation were composed as a sort of an anxious response to what are sometimes the debilitating requisites of producing a dance object. Simply put, the pieces of dance in this compilation were composed with the most minimal financial, social and bodily resources available, that is without: studio, rehearsal time, stylistic concern, producer, presenter, grant, fiscal support, culture agenda, theater, and dancing-able body. All 50 dance pieces in this book were created, produced, composed, and choreographed with no dancer in mind. And to have no dancer in mind. That is to say, this work is a pure act of choreography. An act prefaced by an open field of absences.
