Fighting Monkey Practice – Earthquake Architecture

Try. Play. Change roles. Lead. Follow. Struggle. Adapt. Study. Work with what you have and who you are. Physics. Anatomy. Adaptability. Imagination. Curiosity. Creativity above all.

Improvisation and creativity are vital to any kind of problem solving, and problem solving is vital for survival. On stage and above all in life. Life rarely happens on cue, according to script or as you expect. It is turbulent, always dynamic and unpredictable. It happens in context. It’s complex.
