I think when I am notating the choreography on paper that I am constantly asking what the audience would see. What are they interpreting apart from the critical and metaphysical knowledge that is undercurrent in the piece. Although I don’t agree we have to love everyone, or to surround totally towards an outside observer, but just to try to make our private interest something interesting for more than ourselves. How many more? It does not matter. Otherwise we fall into universality: trying to find the ultimate way of massive communication. For me it is important to stay faithful to my own intuition, to my own singularity as a human being. I am not molecules. Guattari and Deleuze are. They offered their imagination trough that vocabulary. I am Diego, I born in Liniers in a neighbourhood in Buenos Aires, Argentina, I dance and like to read philosophy, I have melancholic tendencies and ambitions to understand the total order of things, etc, etc. From this particular point of view I open myself in theater to people, and happily I ask people to be open to themselves and myself in the same manner. About Falling has another meaning for me: falling back to earth, to facts, to feel in the flash what one was and is. This is what I mean with “coming back” to place of origin. Being humble enough to remember earhtly facts that constitute me: man, 32 years old, Argentinean, sad, gay, a bit crazy, so on so forth. And from there explode identity into molecules. From there offer an opening in theater. The singularity I perceive in a person (not her molecules, but the wrinkles in her hand) is the basic “enigma” that philosophy or universality I hope will never take away from me. Affirming closeness, the need to not love everyone, to not be 100 percent generous as Buddha or Jesus is to come back to earth and say: from this point of singularity, privacy, memory, I can open up and diversify, and see who wants to connect with me or not.
