I am almost one hundred percent sure that I want to do my project on either the movement arts as a whole or on one specific movement art. It is the art that is closest to me personally and I feel like I would be able to say the most about it and add to the conversation since it is such a big part of my life. So for this project I believe that I will most likely exploring one form of art. The movement art sport that I am most involved in, "tricking". is relatively new. most of the works of art, which is mostly in video form for tricking, have been created within the past ten years so I should be fine timeline wise.

    What types of movement art are you most interested in Josh and which one are you going to explore. I wish you talked more about what specific topics you'd be diving into because I'm sure there are a lot of different sectors to the sport. Off the top of my head I can think of gymnastics, song and dance, ribbon twirling, parkour, free running and slacklining. Also I am curious to think of what defines movement as an art to you personally? Is it the freedom of utilizing your body in unique ways? Or maybe you utilize a combination of different movements, I am left very curious.

    Like Parker, I'm interested in your ideas here but am not familiar with this "tricking" concept you mention. Would love to know more about how and why this is an art form. Be sure it's something you feel you can perform critical analysis of; while I'm not well versed in it enough to know, we may want to discuss it further to be sure it'll work for the project!

    Josh, i think you should go with what interests you the most and I think art would be a great topic because there's so much to write about in that venue. I like art especially in a variety of forms and it will always be a part of us so maybe you can start with what it means to us and how we will always include it in our lives and societies. I consider art as God's gift to man because it allows us to express our emotions from a young age.

I have found that many of the works in this category fall into one of two types. The first type being history books. These books tell the story of a mix of an art styles, or artists. The other type is an exploration of art. These can span various topics such as the theology of a specific style or a commentary on what it means to make art and why we do it. I found it really cool to see the interdisciplinary work being done between writing and other arts just as painting and drawing. It is really interesting when two mediums of art are combined. I also think the topics discussed are very interesting. I really enjoy reading about how the art of a time period impacted it’s history and vice versa. The other type is a little harder for me to understand but I still find it interesting to see how these art works would be described in ...

  The arts that I have been a part of for most of my life are a variety of movement arts. While I enjoy consuming a variety of mediums of art the art that I personally create is pretty much all under the movement arts umbrella. The first and definitely the movement art I have spent the most time is martial arts. I have been studying martial arts for eleven years, starting with karate.

My time training exclusively karate ended about two years ago when one of my teachers began teaching me shaolin kung fu. This gave me an entirely new avenue to explore my martial arts and lead to me starting an entirely new kung fu style, wushu, in Boston when I started college last year. I have been going back and practicing a lot of my old material while waiting for Covid ...
