About

Dancing Echoes

Bio: I am a scientist by trade and artist by soul. My creative outlet used to be dancing but due to injuries and age, I must now find another path. I am hoping my writing, poetry and photography can be this new path. Awards: While I am grateful and honored for the numerous nominations, I don’t have time to respond to them with the attention they deserve, so for the most part, I am an award free blog. All photographs and words are mine unless otherwise credited. © 2015-2023 Dancing Echoes ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Unauthorized use and/or duplication of this material without express and written permission from this blog’s author/owner is strictly prohibited.

    Interesting profile, because your artistic (poetry) side confirms my belief that we scientists can also have an appreciation of the finer arts. 🙂 Ken

    Thank you. Yes, I agree. In fact most good scientists are creative.

    Yes, the mind/body disconnect is rather disconcerting. Growing older is overrated. I don’t recommend it.

    But of course science and creativity go together! For isn’t science inherently creative? I look forward to further exploring your blog. I am not a scientist and I might not always agree with your perspective…but I know I will always find it fascinating!

    Thank you for visiting my blog. I dance on the inside. What aspect of science do you work in? I’ve done a bit of work in science promotion. My daughter loves dancing and I became a convert watching her end of year dance concerts. I feel myself becoming entwined in a kind of magic.
    Take care .

    Your daughter is beautiful and it looks like her concert was a wonderful experience. I work in the the environmental testing business. I support a water quality program with analytical chemistry. Please tell me about your science promotion? I am active on a STEM board and am always looking for opportunities to reach out to young people to promote science.

    There’s nothing a writer appreciates more than an audience! (Well, maybe an endless supply of excellent story ideas!) Enjoy your holiday. With any luck I’ll have a couple of things up soon!
