When I first landed in San Francisco in 1988 to go to school at Berkeley, I wasn’t planning on staying. Perhaps around Junior Year, after I came out as queer and then started identifying with Asian Americans, as most of my friends were… I thought that I might want to stay… but I didn’t know how.

If Bram Stoker gave birth to the vampire in literature, then Nosferatu gave birth to the vampire in cinema. Nosferatu is the first vampire who protagonized cinema in 1922 during the silent era, the very beginning of cinema. F. W. Murnau’s Nosferatu (1922) distinguishes itself from Bram Stoker’s classic by asserting love and eroticism, rather than violence, defeats the vampire and its evil.

It has been well documented that the American silver winner refused to shake Pan’s hand and some random Australian swim coach (who has nothing much to do with the current Olympics) caused a Western media circus to discredit Pan’s gold medal for unfounded suspicion of doping, which has already been discredited by the Olympics committee and major Western media like The Guardian.

I first met Randi Liberman when she was subbing for dancer Hero Thomas’ class at Los Angeles’ Millennium Dance Complex. I enjoyed her choreography so much that—because I couldn’t make her regular class—I’ve decided to take private lessons from her. Originally from Montréal and now working as a dancer, choreographer and teacher in Los Angeles, Randi currently dances for pop artist Ava Max, teaches hip hop dance at Millennium Dance Complex and choreographs for various rising music artists. I took the opportunity to interview her about her rising career.
