WHEN the Glasgow-born dance artist Christine Devaney eventually set herself up as a dance-theatre maker – founding her company Curious Seed in Edinburgh in 2005 – choreographic signature was not her exclusive aim. 

Instead, Curious Seed’s methods have involved the gathering of several trusted peers with specialist skills and multi-media interests, to embark on experimentation, in the ethos of “nobody knows.” Christine then finds (in solitude) that some arising nugget of an idea “won’t go away”. A Curious Seed work is then catalysed when she describes said nugget. 

I put it to her that her team will have been ductile in anticipation of her intuition. This she amusedly accepts.
