You Live Because Insects Eat You, Tatsumi Hijikata

A person is buried in a wall. He becomes an insect that dances on a thin sheet of paper. it makes rustling noises, trying to hold falling particles. The insect then becomes a person, so fragile that he could crumble with the slightest touch, who is wandering around.

A dance in written form by Tatsumi Hijikata, who was the founder of Butoh. He believed that one of the strongest ways into the body was through words. (Thank you, Jeremy.)
