72 - Presentation and Character - Helsinki Conversations w Jay Gilligan part 2 of 3

In this conversation Jay Gilligan and I dig deeper into how the best presentations of any kind of Material seems to emerge, in a holistic way, from an authentic character. We arrive back at magician Dani DaOrtiz's techniques and how his whole persona, the way he uses language, is completely fused that to use some of his techniques every magician would have to go through a proper translation process to make the techniques her own. We talk about translation, we talk about Indiana Jones juggling, we talk about "the Genre of Good," we pick apart the comment "you can't just juggle..." Jay talks about his obsession with Cirque de Soleil, and using "indiana jones" to grab Attention and from this make the Audience be able to connect to and appreciate juggling which they would otherwise not have paid Attention to. To end it all Jay says "how cool it would have been if that guy that said, "you can't just juggle" in stead said "you can't just juggle - you also have to be yourself."Support the show...After a long abscence our Merch Shop is back!
