Kool with a "K" is Super Kool

This is Karole Armitage. She is a KOOL dancer and choreographer. She was hot in the 80's but then fell out of favor. She studied with Merce Cunningham and is kind of punk rock. I don't know what she's up to now, though I think she is in New York or London. Her dances are angular and violent and odd. And she looks KOOL and she moves KOOL. She is one of the reasons I like contemporary dance.
I bring her up because I was thinking about desire. What creates desire? For the longest time I had forgotten Karole Armitage's name. I had seen a documentary about her seven or eight years ago. But I remembered her and her dance. I thought she, her dance, and her personality was lovely and funny and kooky. But I couldn't remember her name. So I emailed Bravo and A&E because they may have broadcast the documentary, but no one there had any clue. And finally, last year, thanks to Martin Kersels' vast knowledge, he pulled her name out for me. It was like finding a long lost lover (Karole, not Martin--no offense, Martin). It was a relief and it was pleasurable. But the longing...the longing created by desire is rough. And I have to let that feeling dissipate. Poof! It went out.
