Notes from Source: I first met the pair in their class “Egocircus” at the University of Michigan (an incarnation of the course on collaboration first offered at New York University). The seminar began with a series of curiosities: for example, Currie’s favorite shoes worn days prior were now suddenly relocated on Anne’s feet, and she allowed herself just a slight smile when he noticed. The way Carson and Currie moved about one another looked to me like a dance where each refused to lead. This past June, five years after our first encounter, Carson and Currie invited me into their home for an interview on their evolving collaboration. I entered through the front door, following their voices upstairs to find Carson sitting on the couch. Currie chose a seat on the floor next to me; he seemed more comfortable there. Carson placed her feet on my bag, which made me laugh. When I said I knew that I was officially allowed only five questions, Currie playfully scolded Carson. But it became clear she had forgotten she’d set this limit, and they did respond to follow-up questions by email later on.
