  • Hey Robbie,

  • Really informative piece here. This format works really well as a thorough presentation of Maya's work, getting to hear and see the dialectic of her thoughts, process and the work. Thank you so much for contributing! More, more.
  • awesome stuff! thanks for putting this together - i really dig maya's work and was glad to hear her talk about her own work.
  • Great interview. Maya's thoughts on video-dance I hope are shared, the honest potential of the seemingly narrow field of video can be redefined as artists of movement in space and time continue to enter the electronic world.
