Stop Having a Body, Stop Calling Yourself Dancer Stop talking about yourself as a dancer. You are not a dancer! Perhaps you have enjoyed an education in dance perhaps you have taken a few dance classes or been to a disco? But you are not a dancer. Something that is, announces itself as static, as autonomous in the most uninteresting of ways, as independent in the sense of not being part of the game. The moment you announce yourself a dancer you give yourself the romantic artist image, or upgraded the image of a worker or laborer. Probably same same just that the first wouldn’t have a labor union to hook up with but only a melancholic face. Dance is something that one does, not something one is. And further as long as we announce ourselves as dancers, that is, we have to be loyal to all dancers, we are the same existence. ( 116 ) Dance is something that we do and I don’t have to confirm what you do! The moment dance becomes something we do, we can like each other and dislike each other’s dance. If dancer is what we are then the dance expresses our existence, this is a very very bad moment cuz it means there is some horrible core, nucleus or essence that you possess. Dance is something that you do, like driving a taxi or being a civil servant. We like it a lot but don’t let that make it into a calling, some internal urgency or a reason to not get paid properly. Moreover as long as you call yourself a dancer and identify with being a dancer, other people will continue to talk about you as a lower existence, something that is less important and is something that shows you how beautiful and tough life can be. Fuck that. Same thing with the body, stop thinking about the body as special. This is good.
