My wish is changing my brain into a USB stick with unlimited storage, while my right eye is a camera and left eye is a projector. So to record different body motions from my daily observation, and these will all become the materials of my dance creation. Then, I will go to different corners of the world, turn on my left eye and project my thoughts fearlessly.
