Marching on Stalwart defense keys unforseen tourney run by Ryan Tomari

rtomari@unm.edu LAS VEGAS — Call them the flavor of the month. Forward Porche Torrance had two key blocks on Wyoming’s Aubrey Vandiver in the final 1:59, and the seventh-seeded Lobo women’s basketball team leaned on stinUNM 67 gy, physical defense to shut WYO. 61 down thirdseeded Wyoming 67-61 Wednesday, setting up an improbable semifinals matchup against second-seeded TCU. Senior Jessica Kielpinski said the Mountain West Conference tournament venue becomes the Lobos’ home away from home. “Well, I guess they call it Pit West,” she said. “I guess when we’re here, we just gel together. I don’t know — it’s the atmosphere or something, but something clicks when we’re here.” Vandiver, the conference’s MVP who led the league in regular-season scoring with 18.5 points per game, finished with 26 points. Fifteen of her points came in the

second half, but head coach Don Flanagan credited Torrance for coming up with stops when the Lobos needed them the most. “Porche did an excellent job,” he said. “Now, we put three or four people on her, but Porche did the best out of anybody. I was just worried that Porche would foul out, but she did a real nice job of staying in the game.”

Wyoming head coach Joe Legerski said that UNM deserved all the credit in the world for slowing down his team.

what Vandiver said to get a technical foul. “I just saw her yelling at Jasmine,” she said. “I was like, ‘Ref, check it out.’ I didn’t really know, but she was yelling though.” Wyoming finally figured out UNM’s defense, and with 3:31, cut the Lobos’ lead to 59-56. However, Patterson got fouled and hit two free throws with 1:58 to go up 61-57. Wyoming head coach Joe Legerski said that UNM deserved all the credit in the world for slowing down his team. “One of the things that I talk about is that New Mexico has developed a tradition to win at the tournament,” he said. “You get that with good players, and they’ve been able to do that. So for us, we’re still trying to accomplish that.” Four Lobos finished in double figures. Kielpinski finished with 11, Patterson with 14 and Best with 15. Guard Lauren Taylor scored 13 points and found her shot in the

UNM’s defense flustered Vandiver all night. Wyoming was down as much as 13 points in the second half. With 5:19 remaining in the game, Vandiver had the ball swatted away from her by UNM’s Jasmine Patterson. Frustrated, Vandiver yelled at see Winners page 3 guards Amanda Best and Patterson after the play and received Long Nguyen / Daily Lobo a technical foul. Best took to the Porche Torrance skies for a rebound during line and hit both free throws to the UNM women’s MWC quarterfinal game take a 59-54 lead. Best said she didn’t know against Wyoming. Torrance had 10 rebounds in the Lobos’ 67-61 upset over the Cowgirls.

Clubhouse unveiled, but apartments not finished Rent and fees allow for exclusive amenities by Chelsea Erven cerven@unm.edu

The Lobo Village clubhouse was up, running and fully furnished for its opening Wednesday, but Lobo Village is still under construction and won’t open until August. Residents can’t move in until August 17, but Lobo Village General Manager Brent McPherson said residents have to pay for the entire month of August, not a prorated portion. He said it’s unclear whether future residents will be allowed to use the clubhouse before moving in. “They probably won’t be able to use it,” he said. “We’re still trying to figure that out because of insurance requirements and things of that nature.” Only Lobo Village residents will have access to the clubhouse when it opens, McPherson said, but guests are allowed if accompanied by residents. He said the Lobo Village project costs $63 million, and construction is running about a month ahead of schedule. More than 60 people showed up to tour the clubhouse. The building features Apple computers and TVs, pool and air-hockey tables, a 44-seat movie theater, and a gym. Construction workers were finishing up the swimming pool Wednesday, which is located west of the clubhouse. “I’m moving in next semester and I wanted to get a first look at where I’ll be living,” student Alissa James said at the event. “I like it a lot. It’s really modern-looking and beautiful.” Lobo Village is organized into four-bedroom units. Residents pay

Dylan Smith / Daily Lobo Lobo Village officials toured students around the facility’s clubhouse Wednesday. The clubhouse may or may not be accessible to students before construction is finished. The housing project should be completed by August. $499 a month to lease one bedroom. UNM will charge residents a one-time $125 fee for shuttle transportation to and from main campus. ACC charges a $75 application fee and $150 deposit fee to all residents. Residents must pay monthly electric bills for their units, which run entirely on electricity. McPherson said residents would be charged late fees for past-due rent, but he refused to say how much. McPherson said he is optimistic that the grand opening would

encourage students to live at Lobo Village, even though the apartments aren’t ready for viewing. “We’re trying to hype it up, and we want people to be excited,” he said. “Lobo Village is already 83 percent filled, and we’re only selling paper. Now that we have something tangible to sell, and they can see what the product is about.” Elizabeth Cleary contributed to this report.

More retirement, less paycheck by Diego Gomez

dgomez24@unm.edu State workers and public school teachers might have to pay more than 12 percent of their salaries toward retirement starting July 1. HB 628, which extends an increase of 1.5 percent and tacks on an additional 1.75 percent to workers and teachers, passed the House in a 43-26 vote Monday. The measure is now in the Senate Finance Committee. Bill sponsor Rep. Donald Bratton originally proposed a permanent 1.5 percent increase, but said his colleagues preferred a temporary dramatic increase. Next fiscal year, contributions will drop to 10.75 percent, and the year after that, contributions will level out at almost 9 percent. “They would want it to be tempo-

“I hope the Senate will pass this bill.There are better ways of dealing with a student other than with physical discipline.” ~Rep. Rick Miera rary,” Bratton said. “They would not want the employee to carry the burden for the employer on a permanent basis.” State employees already have to make economic sacrifices through mandatory furloughs, and now they will also have a smaller paycheck. With the 3.25 percent increase, teachers would pay about $49 per week toward their retirement funds, which

comes out to $2,548 a year. No more paddling HB 172 passed the House 36-31 Tuesday. If passed by the Senate and signed into law by Gov. Susana Martinez, the bill would not allow teachers to paddle. Rep. Rick Miera (D-Bernalillo) introduced the bill, and he said that Republicans and Democrats weren’t divided on the issue. “It was a bipartisan pass,” he said. “It shows that it was not a political issue.” The bill is now in the Senate Judiciary Committee. A study found 223,190 students nationwide — including at least 41,972 students with disabilities — were paddled at least once in the 2006-07 school year, according to the U.S. Department of Education. “I hope the Senate will pass this bill,” Miera said. “There are better ways of dealing with a student other than with physical discipline.”

All of the sudden we’re playing relaxed, we’re feeling comfortable, and we’re thinking in a positive way.” The Lobos’ two tournament wins have come against teams that swept them in the regular season. Wyoming swept the season series

by beating UNM by double-digits both times (63-53 and 78-65). With the win over the Cowgirls, the Lobos advanced to the semifinals for the ninth time in the last 11 years. Flanagan said he didn’t pack enough clothes for an extended trip, but his team has come together at the right time. “Coming to the tournament, I didn’t feel comfortable,” he said. “I only brought one sport jacket. But I got different ties, so I’m OK.”

LETTERS What happens once the rich destroy the middle class? Editor, What’s next? Let’s see. On Jan. 21, when the Supreme Court granted corporations at least the rights that persons have in this country, that resulted in persons not having any say in who gets elected to public office. Corporations have gained the right to spend unlimited money to elect whoever favors them gaining more power or block the election of whoever is opposed to them gaining more power. That was January. Now, in March, there are efforts in several states to deny persons collective bargaining rights. It makes one wonder — what is next? Free speech, unless one’s speech is in support of more money and power being given to the already rich and powerful? Have we become a nation that allows only money to flow from the poor to those who already have the majority of wealth and power? Some actually claim that for the rich and powerful to offer anything for the less fortunate, even jobs, is socialism, which would destroy this country. It is my opinion that our strong middle class has fueled our economy and made us the envy of countries around the world. Now that the rich and powerful have been able to destroy our middle class, where are we headed?

Being Christian doesn’t give you the right to condemn

UNM runs on a ‘skeleton crew’

Editor, I am happy to see that at least the first three responses to Don Schrader’s letter are positive and civil. John Newton wrote one of the most popular hymns in the world — even in venues that do not hold to Christian principles or doctrines. The man had a conversion experience that caused many to seek God and turn to Jesus as the world’s savior. Yes, even the most wicked sinner — slave seller and buyer alike — can be saved. For this reason, one should search his or her heart before passing judgment on those who are considered “different” among us. Being Christian does not give us the right to condemn others to damnation. Rev. Mary E. Woods UNM alumnus

Daily Lobo Guest Columnist Have you noticed UNM classrooms and public spaces are slightly dirtier than usual? I have. It hit me while sneaking behind some cabinets to catch a phone call in the library. Our school isn’t being maintained the way it was just a year ago. There was a thick film of dust on those cabinets — the kind that begs for someone to write, “Clean me.” There’s a reason that UNM public spaces look unkempt: In the past two years, the Physical Plant Department (PPD) lost 69 positions to attrition. That’s 69 mostly lowpaid custodial positions. To further explain what’s going on, I need to go back two years when the regents instigated a UNM-wide hiring freeze to stave off a projected budget shortfall because of the recession. The freeze required the administration to approve filling vacated positions. That freeze trimmed UNM’s faculty, staff and other resources to the bone. UNM is running on a skeleton crew. Imagine being an out-of-state prospective student calling the registrar’s office. The phone continues to ring, but you’re never transferred to voice mail. This could happen because Student Services, a showcase office in the south complex, has cut its staff to bare minimum and discontinued voice mail as a cost-cutting measure. “We’re trying to do more with less,” said Merle Kennedy, UNM Staff Council President and a manager in the registrar’s office.

He said that services to students aren’t suffering while admitting that record-high enrollment combined with lowered staffing levels and fewer professors means larger classes and fewer staff providing services to more students. UNM Faculty Senate President Richard Wood said that UNM is down 12 faculty positions from a year ago. Including proposed reductions, the cumulative funding cuts UNM gets from the state add up to 20 percent. He said that a $9 million cut is on the table and reminded me that $5.6 million was cut last fall. He doesn’t think services to students have suffered to date, but believes more cuts will cause them to.

There’s a reason that UNM public spaces look unkempt: In the past two years, the Physical Plant Department has lost 69 positions to attrition. As with most governmental agencies, the majority of UNM’s operating expenses are wages. These series of cuts mean more people will lose their jobs. This either means fewer people providing the same services or fewer services. If the past two years are indicators of the future, we know that the lower an employee is on the human resources food chain, the easier it is to cut that position. This means vice presidents, department directors and other highly paid administrator positions are relatively safe while custodians, office assistants and highly skilled graduate student employees are fungible. We’ve already seen this in how graduate assistant positions were the first on the chopping block and in the 69 PPD positions that have

disappeared. The question isn’t: How much more cutting can UNM afford before its mission to educate New Mexicans is compromised? I believe we passed that milestone last fall. The real question is: Why have our leaders led us down this path? The Roundhouse group-think is stuck on “cut the budget to the bone” — but that kind of anorexic thinking is now cutting vital services in the quest of closing a $200 million budget gap. But cost-cutting only addresses one side of the ledger. In an editorial published in Sunday’s Albuquerque Journal, Sen. Tim Keller (DAlbuquerque) writes: “Tax expenditures, the tax subsidies, incentives, exemptions and deductions are all forms for tax carveouts for various industries, special interests and population segments. Together all 107 of these make up an estimated $1 billion in annual taxes we choose not to collect each year.” In other words, close the tax loopholes that have been bleeding potential state revenues. Sen. Gerald Ortiz y Pino (D-Albuquerque) has another idea. He proposes the state borrow from the State Permanent Fund to offset the projected shortfall and pay it back, with interest, from future revenues — presumably when the economy gets better. Of course, the Legislature could also bring tax rates back to pre-2003 levels when those making $100,000 were taxed at a slightly higher rate than the rest of us. The DFA estimates this would increase revenues by half a billion dollars per year. UNM, like the rest of New Mexico governments, has been trimmed as much as possible. Further cuts will only reduce services beyond functionality. It’s time for the Legislature to consider the revenue side of the equation.

Hoping for an extended Vegas tourney stay The Horned Frogs entered Tuesday’s contest with a 13-game losing streak and had bowed out in the first round of the tournament the last three years. TCU improved to 11-2 by Shaun Griswold this season when scoring 70 or more shaun24@unm.edu points. Cadot reached double digits LAS VEGAS — Wyoming, pack for the seventh consecutive game. “I challenged him with one the bags and go home; TCU, stay anthing,” Christian said. “I pulled him other day. The ninth-seeded Horned Frogs aside in the hotel and said, ‘The only defeated eighth-seeded Wyoming thing I want you to be is the hardest70-61 Tuesday to playing guy on the floor.’” Wyoming played catchup the advance to face TCU 70 top-seeded BYU entire first half and was down 24-27 WYO. 61 in the Mountain going into the second. But TCU had West Conference trouble breaking away and allowed tournament quarterfinals. Led by Wyoming to take a 42-41 lead with J.R. Cadot, who finished with 13 13 minutes left. TCU answered with a 9-0 run and points and 13 rebounds, TCU had led by 13 points late in the game. three players in double figures.

a run, too,” Thorns said. “For me to be a team leader, I have to be patient. I have to show the team by example. I can’t just say it. I have to go out there and show it as well.” For Wyoming, the loss ends a disappointing season, in which its head coach Heath Schroyer was fired midway through the conference schedule. Francisco Cruz led Wyoming with 14 points. “We turned the ball over a lot,” Cruz said. “In the end, I think they played harder than us. I think that was the difference in the game.” The Horned Frogs immediately turned their attention toward preparing for National Player of the Year candidate Jimmer Fredette. BYU beat TCU by 17 at home and 23 on the road this season. “We have to come out, execute our game plan,” Christian said. “They’re very good in zone, and they have a lot more depth than we have. I’ll trade ’em. I’m just kidding.”

LAS VEGAS — War is how the UNM men’s basketball team is describing it, but for those tired of the oft-used comparison, it’s more appropriately a game of Risk. On the line: an appearance in the Mountain West Conference tournament quarterfinals, and a likely date with No. 1 BYU. First though, the fifthseeded UNM men’s basketball team opens with fourth-seeded Colorado State today at the Thomas & Mack Center. UNM is looking to avenge a February loss in Fort Collins, Colo. Freshman guard Kendall Williams said it’s going to be an all-out dog fight. “It’s war, and I’m not going to understate it,” he said. The Lobos split the season series with the Rams and defeated CSU 68-62 on Jan. 12. It was UNM’s first MWC win of the season. Exactly a month later, the score was almost identical at CSU, this time in the Rams’ favor. Before the Lobos duke it out with the Rams, they need to get healthy. As far as head coach Steve Alford is concerned, the final conference stretch took a toll on the Lobos. Tony Snell, who suffered a sprained ankle, sat out Saturday’s regular-season finale against Air Force, and forward Drew Gordon broke his nose in the game. Gordon said, however, the broken nose isn’t slowing him down. “I’m dealing with that,” he said. “Fortunately it doesn’t have anything with my legs or my arms.” It’s a good thing it’s just a nose problem, because Gordon said he’s not wearing anything but his uniform in the tournament. The 6-foot-9-inch forward form San Jose, Calif., said he doesn’t plan to wear a mask today. “I’m really not looking forward to wearing a mask because I had to wear one in high school,” Gordon said. “It was so uncomfortable. I tore it up, and it ended up not working anyways.” Snell, on the other hand, has no choice. He will need a taped ankle.

Snell made a name for himself with a breakout game against BYU at The Pit. In scoring 16 second-half points, Snell helped the Lobos erase a 13-point point deficit against the Cougars. If Snell can contribute against the Rams, it would be another weapon in Alford’s arsenal. So it’s good news for the Lobos because Snell looks like a go against CSU. Injuries notwithstanding, the Lobos have to worry about defending the MWC’s second-leading scorer. Senior forward Andy Ogide beat up the Lobos in the paint at Moby Arena in the Rams’ 68-62 win. Ogide forced Gordon to foul out, and he scored a game-high 17 points and nabbed four boards. He was 7-of11 from the field. Alford said the Lobos have to shut down Ogide in the tourney. “Colorado State is a much-improved team,” he said. “They’re a veteran-laden team that’s trying to get (to the NCAA tournament), where they haven’t been in a while. Those are very difficult matchups for us.” Gordon said he can’t foul out in the MWC tournament. “I didn’t really perform well,” he said. “My team and I didn’t have the best game, and I think that everyone is kind of rallying behind this game because we got beat, and that’s not a good feeling, especially because they handle us pretty well.” As for going to war in Vegas, Gordon said anytime he steps on the court, it’s a test of will. “It’s your army versus theirs,” Gordon said. “Whoever wins, they’re the victor that day, and you always go out and fight. It’s not a game of, ‘OK, your turn then my turn.’ You got fight for every rebound, blocked shot and every basket. (War is) a perfect way to describe it.”

ou’re a nature person, which means 95 percent of the population doesn’t like you. You spend all your time away from society, so here are interesting scenic locations to get your Mother Earth on.

If you like warm water, but can’t get to Cancun, try Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs Resort and Spa. Two hours north of Albuquerque, it offers 10 pools with mineral properties and varying temperatures. The pools remedy ailments. You’ve got the sauna, steam room and a row of hammocks to ensure rejuvenation. Incessant stress and tension are sure to acquiesce to extraordinary bliss that can stay with you for days. Spring marks the end of winter, which means all that sledding you did in the Sandias is done. Except you didn’t do that, because there was no snow. Mother Nature, however, has heard the plight of desert yetis and offered a comparable substitute. The vast dunes at White Sands, three and a half hours south of Albuquerque, are sledding Shangri-La. Unlike snow, the sand’s friction entails a quest for a mound with an optimal slope. The seeker who succeeds in this quest will be rewarded with a titillating taste of reckless abandon. You know it’s March if, in taking a short walk, you risk having your hair blown out of its follicles. The galling gales seem to be a malevolent force, harassing anyone who braves the gusts. But you can make the wind your punk by forcing it fly a kite for you. In a week void of obligations, you could make a day trip of showing Mother Nature what’s up. Try the West Mesa because it’s free of obstacles. You could also try Johnson Field, if you want to come to UNM on break, or go hang out by the nearest power lines to electrify your day. ~Alexandra Swanberg

ou’re into the less conventional paths life has to offer, and you would be exploring the deepest trenches of the sea this week, but you already blew your money on a telescope looking for Tralfamadorians. In the meantime, satisfy your quest for knowledge and the strange with these events.

While it’s normally overrun by children who always hog the dam exhibit or legit airplane simulator, Albuquerque’s science center Explora hopes to remedy this problem by offering adults-only night. It’s March 18 and sponsored by 100.3 The Peak. Expect free food, a live band, plenty of hands-on experiments and activities, roof star-gazing and an Albuquerquedriven theme of “local science.” You can also hit up the National Park Service and Aztec Ruins National Monument if you are more into looking at dead people’s defeated culture while thinking that it’ll never happen to us. That being said, it only costs $5 to get into the park for a week, so you could hypothetically be set for break. What you do there is your own business, and the government’s, but if Native American folklore has taught us anything, you should avoid angering the ghosts of spirits long since passed. If you prefer a more practical knowledge, hit up the Red Cross Save a Life on Saturday. It takes place at the SUB ballrooms at 8:30 a.m., 10:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. The course is dedicated to Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, but don’t fret. It’s free, so that seems like a pretty good reason concerning these courses can get expensive. ~Chris Quintana and Antonio Sanchez

Y

ou are stuck in New Mexico, but that doesn’t mean you can’t dull your mind with the arts in the meantime. Check out these exhibits, and maybe you’ll see you don’t need New York’s art scene.

If your imagination is the only part of you that’s able to “wander” this spring break, check out artist Archer Dougherty’s “In the Attic” free exhibition at the Matrix Fine Art gallery. Running till March 26, the Matrix Fine Art is displaying Dougherty’s latest solo exhibition, revealing the artist’s latest mixed-media works. “In the Attic” features paintings that highlight the artist’s fondness for the surreal and the fantastic, blending oil and graphite to create dream-like images. Dougherty is a UNM graduate. If you won’t be able to travel to India this week, experience the closest thing to the Taj Mahal by visiting Earth Treasures at the Coronado Mall in Albuquerque on March 19 from 11:30 a.m.-7 p.m. for Henna tattoos. For only $5, local Henna artists apply intricate Eastern designs, with tattoos lasting about two to three weeks. Dating back to the Bronze Age, Henna has been used to emphasize luck and beauty in many cultures, with no Henna tattoo being completely alike. If you are looking to learn more about the fairer sex this spring break, forget the bikinis and the suntan lotion and attend the Cervantes Institute at National Hispanic Cultural Center’s photography exhibit, “Mujeres y Mujeres” (Women & Women). From now to the end of March, visitors may attend the exhibit and see influential Spanish women photographers such as Isabel Muñoz, Gabriela Grech and Beatriz Moreno. ~Juanita Martinez

Y

ou like to watch things instead of participating — which is cool. But if you are going to be stuck in New Mexico, you might as well watch something you like. Here’s a good list of things to hit up.

Even if you can’t get to New Orleans to enjoy Mardi Gras, you at least have the opportunity to be presented with Louisiana at Albuquerque Little Theatre’s production, “Steel Magnolias.” It wraps Sunday. Just remember if you cried watching it at home alone on Lifetime, you are probably going to cry in the theater. Even if the rest of the world has left you in the dust, Blackout Theatre feels your sorrow and promises to be there for you. Perhaps you even have family visiting you in our tiny desert getaway, young cousins and all. Whatever the case, you have a perfect opportunity to see “The Sparrow’s Daughter: A Cuento,” a New Mexico-influenced Blackout original directed by Heather Yeo. And of course, it wouldn’t be Blackout if they weren’t doing something extra special and crazy. The mystical setting incorporates extensive shadow puppets underlining the ghostly journey of the young protagonist. If theater isn’t what you’re looking for, that’s cool, too. That’s because Nob Hill’s Guild Cinema would more than happily be your pal and show you all the sweet movies you might miss if you were off doing something cool. Monday and Tuesday mark the showing of “The Kids Are Alright,” the second film in the Guild special on The Who. ~Graham Gentz

CAMPUS EVENTS

And the world comes dancing Choreographers explore civil war, Goya, the body by Alexandra Swanberg aswanny@unm.edu

Global DanceFest artists are challenging spoken language’s limitations. The production kicks off its threeweekend-long, eclectic compilation Friday. Together, the three sets, spaced out over three weekends, compose dance’s Rosetta Stone — a culturalbridging, body-language experience that gives audiences a glimpse at African, New York, and Latin and Hispanic dancers from Los Angeles, Mexico, Brazil and Mozambique. Contemporary dance opens eyes to foreign spheres and ways of thinking, said Marjorie Neset, VSA Arts New Mexico executive director. “Global DanceFest is intended to represent the world and has a real kind of cultural base, not in the sense of projecting heritage particularly, but in the sense of taking a look at the world as it exists,” she said. Celebrating diversity, the production disavows ethnocentricity by merging around-the-globe dance numbers. The first dance — from Mozambique’s Panaibra Gabriel Canda — “Time and Spaces: The Marrabenta Solos,” is accompanied by marrabenta, a form of Mozambican dance music. Canda’s country has been in constant political turmoil since civil war erupted and waged from 1977-92. He said the piece evolves because of the country’s shifting political beliefs, so it doesn’t offer a solution or conclusion because his people don’t know what the future holds. “If you feel it’s strange, that means that it provoked something in you,” he said. “It revitalizes something. From the difference, you can start to question yourself or even to just understand yourself. But the presence of this difference — it’s like you give yourself a better understanding of your own choices as a human being.” And choices are truly what these performance sets are about. Performers/choreographers from Los Angeles, Mexico and Brazil collaborated to produce “El Sueño de la Razón/Slumber of Reason,” a piece from the Latina Dance Theater Project that features 10 interpretations of Francisco Goya’s seminal caprichos, or etchings. It runs March 25-26 at the National Hispanic Cultural Center. Collaborator Licia Perea said the

Courtesy of StephenPetronioCo Dancers from the Stephen Petronio Company perform “I Drink the Air Before Me,” a storminspired piece. The piece will be at the National Hispanic Cultural Center on March 18-19. etchings departed from what artists were doing around 1799. On that note, she said, the etchings’ subject matter of corruption, war, or beauty and the supernatural is still relevant today. Like Canda’s piece, “Slumber of Reason” explores parallels between two cultures, though it looks at shared themes of time periods, not societal change. “So we take some of those things and we’re applying them to contemporary issues that are really the same,” she said. “Each one of them is like a little story, so that’s what we’ve done as well. The second week features a performance called “I Drink the Air Before Me,” choreographed by Stephen Petronio. Neset said this performance is about unadulterated body movement. “I think the work of all three of the artists, it’s hard to describe,” she said. “(Petronio’s) is pure, fast, powerful, strong contemporary dance.” An abstract, weather-inspired performance is how Petronio described it. He said he looked at pictures of weather patterns to develop body movements. Dense with music and movement, Petronio recommends taking it in from an intuitive, not intellectual, standpoint. “There is a very vivid sense of disorientation and reorientation along the course of the evening,” he said. “I tried to use that sense of orientation because a part of what’s so beautiful about a storm is there’s this incredible calm, then there’s a crazy swirling.” Neset said dance, movement and body language are universally understood communication, so the performances broaden the audience’s world

view. “I think the reason we have the modest, but really devoted audience that we do have, is because people see this way of looking at the world — that this is one of the ways of looking at the world,” she said. “Then, dance is fun. Movement is interesting and beautiful, but I suppose that idea of connecting with the world (is what) I find really important.”
