PosPlease consider this:
It was announced from the Rockefeller Foundation:
Misnomer Dance Theater to utilize behavioral science for a stakeholder-engagement program for NYC’s performing arts organizations in partnership with strategy and marketing firm Orcasci
http://www.rockefellerfoundation.org/news/press-releases/rockefeller-foundation-gives-nearly-3
Besides the insubstantial premise of this project, I find very odd that the the NYC based dance company contracts the London based "firm" Orcasci.
That firm only had one client: Misnomer Dance Theater....from the project that was funded before and we dont even know what happened with that!.
More than one million $$ was given two years ago to Misnomer? ...Just curious...
What happened? other engagement program done? it is or was valuable?
Was it necessary to spend one million $$ and more?
Do you need more money to hire the same people for another engagement project...?
See who was the main client of the London firm "Orcasi"

Interesting...
We need dance journalists also to research these cases...to research facts that help to better our precarious system and go beyond the melodramas of reviews or inocuous debate about the importance of the Can Dance contests for the dance world.
This is what is important:
Money is flowing from agencies and we need results or evaluations no just PR!!
Question:
do we need a wiki-leaks for the arts? and dance?
Does anyone care? or everybody is just gazing to the other side just because...of fear?
I am worried because there is no transparency in how the moneys are spent and because is in the arts it looks like ...not so important.
Please follow this up...
I think that we need transparency...fairness and justice.
We need to ask questions!!!
Answers?
