Volto 16.18 Paste Irritant | Page | Jun 25, 2023 07:59 AM | Mouse-pasting the "Before After" text below (which has an embedded anchor, unlike the text in this summary) into a Plone 6 (6.0.4) page using the Volto (16.18.0) frontend will result in an unrenderable page.

Optical Delusion | Page | Jun 22, 2023 06:05 PM | If you maintain a steady gaze on this image for more than half a minute you will be able to clearly see a giraffe. Anyone can do it. Concentrate! |

Contact Improv As a Way of Moving | Folder | Jun 20, 2023 06:32 PM | Contact improvisation is organized differently than other kinds of partner dance, but that doesn't mean it has to be unclear or confusing. In striving to be more clear I'm fascinated with the particular challenges in learning CI and how to navigate them well. |
Contact Improvisation | Folder | Jun 19, 2023 10:07 AM | I love this dance/sport. I see it as a kind of movement cooperation game which fosters coordination with another person that approaches the thoroughness, immediacy, and range of coordination with yourself. (Along the way it also fosters developing coordination with yourself.) This section includes g... |

An Online Movement-based Accumulation Score | Page | Jun 10, 2022 04:16 PM | Paying attention to others through a screen adds to the challenge inherent in collaborative improvisation of paying attention to yourself and to others at the same time. This score is organized in a way that fosters combining inward and outward attention. |
