a performance is always original. no matter if there is one performance or a hundred performances. like every smaller part associated with the performance, i.e. breath, movement, sound, reaction, appearance, etc, everything is unique on some small level of each piece. so in some way, each performance is groundbreaking, unprecedented, unparalleled, singular, fresh.

when using an online thesaurus, you can get from the word singular to fresh in 5 clicks. what i did was find the word in the middle. what is the perfect median between fresh and singular? the result was innovative. our performance piece jessie and i will be doing is 100% innovative. it may have been done in some similar way before, but under the theory that everything is singular, and when put with the dichotomy between fresh and stale, our performance will be somewhere between singular and fresh.
