Living Life As Performance Art - Dar Dixon

What did you like about this video?

Stillness, Silence, and Listening 💎💎💎

Hearing Dar speak about feminine energy as it pertains to performance art was a revelation because as a man you're almost made to not be expressive in any form. Anytime you're with your male friends and you try to open up about your feelings, they quickly switch to another topic, but with women they love talking about their feelings which is why they love it when we open up to them. With performance art, expressing yourself is 100% necessary because it's what the art form is all about.

What didn't I like about this video!

He is pretentious, as he said.

just don’t get Tekashi 69ed. Know the ledge.

I could listen to him speak for hours. He's got such a warm, calming energy

just the Honesty and perspective

"Life as Performance Art" was THE central tenet of Beat and Hippy culture, all of which has been fully marginalized & scrubbed (by design) from our daily corporate-generated popmedia acid-bath. Dar's recent embrace of this idea seem genuine- it's rare for an establishment actor to wander willingly off the prescribed LA path, but the riches on the roadside can be life-enhancing.

Stillness

🤓Women are nurturing by nature. Men are not. But there’s always exceptions. Men can still care, obviously, but it’s in our biology to be nurturing as women. Our brain is wired differently.
- The cool thing is how we can use that in our professional life as actors, directors, writers and so on. The difference between men and women is so interesting, the different dynamics, the different outlooks on life... so fascinating! 😊

I think you have to be a keen observer of real people and then write them into your script

Who is this guy?

I feel like I'm there listening. What a great interview! As an actor myself, and even as a human being, I got so much insight from Dar's stories!
