I was reading now a short older post about the open-endedness of the blog. The form of the blog suggests the possibility of continuation, of adding posts constantly. There isn’t any intrinsic necessity to stop it. The reasons to finish a blog are external, they relate to other events. In the case I’m interested in, to the artistic creative process the blog was serving.
In these few experiences I’ve made of using blogs alongside the creation of choreographies I’ve always arrived to a point in which I decided not to go on with the writing, because the rehearsal processes were finished (or maybe is better to say, suspended). The interesting thing is that the space (that is, the blog) remains open, both for reading and for writing. The process can be revisited later on, and also re-engaged with if there’s a reason for it: a rework, a new performance, some occasion to reflect on the work.
