It was a project launch discussion (sort of) that Tango is involved. Something that includes (i) hosting pros and promoting workshops, (ii) work on group choreo for performance, and that kind of things.
As I lost 15-18 lbs during the summer and my health concern is lifted, I feel like start dancing more.
For my professional work as a scientist, there are a few projects running in parallel. Among them, after going through some preparatory phase, a collaborative project with a Japanese group was initiated on our side.
It is a simple collaboration. They have unique/rare technique to analyze samples. We have unique/rare samples. We provide samples, they analyze them, and see the results. The launch was to start preparing samples on our side. A little bit of training of my student is involved, too.
I am looking forward to seeing the results.
The third launch is to reboot the Tango book project. I did write a couple of drafts, but did not like structures in these previous versions. And the project got stuck.
It turned out that when I write something, I need structure first. Details can come later.
Recently I revised the table of contents, and am still working on the order of presentation.
I'll keep working on it for a while at night, and will see how it looks.
Although I am well aware that only completed projects count, every time I launch new one, I still feel good. I feel like my overall productivity is coming back. I love it.
The summer of 2016 is pretty much over, and there have been cool nights. Let's see how the projects grow in upcoming months.
