    Deckhead:
    Thursday Morning Dance Party

    Body:
    Truthfully, half the fun of a breakdancing competition is bragging to people that you’re going to one. Before yesterday I had lumped breaking in with demolition derbies and motocross racing; the whole thing had an appealingly ironic twist, as if I were attending some sort of ‘80’s themed Medieval Times. Therefore, happy to spend my Saturday witnessing what I thought would be mere novelty, I jumped into my car, threw on some Clipse and headed north.

    Ever wonder what your professors are thinking about when you see them ‘lost in thought?’ Here my former classmate, John Zissovici, provides a rare window into his pre-studio train of thought. Quoth John: “I’ve been walking over this bridge, off and on, for nearly forty years now and every time I look down into that formidable space. Sometimes I think about the first time I tried to measure the height of the bridge by timing the slow motion fall of the architectural model for my first semester final project that I had just set afire. Nowadays I’m more likely to be mentally measuring its other lengthwise, dimension so that I can get a running start for the stairs up to campus, which ascended, two at a time, helps not remind me of the approximately 120 miles I’ve walked over that cavernous void.” Wow!
