A comment from the exchange I had on Instagram about a year ago with Elisa Oliva (thank you so much for the insight!):
"Of course, otherwise why would we love jugglers?"
I love this comment because of how it creates a connection between aerial and juggling. As soon as aerial comes to the ground, it starts to be manipulation. And actually Rope Manipulation comes from the approach found during the investigation with the rope on the ground. Aerial learning from juggling. Juggling being the skill - the art of manipulating an object and aerial being the rope and the vertical space. That's a very important topic within my work. I would love to hear the voices of aerialists and jugglers on this.
