Jane Bruce relates glassblowing to dancing with a partner. Oral history interview with Jane Bruce, March 22, 2018, Bard Graduate Center. Clip length: 00:32.

Jane Bruce: You know, it’s a dance, glass blowing, you’re dancing with the material. You know, it’s your partner. And I don’t think you get that; maybe when you’re throwing a pot, but—and the fact you can’t, it’s—it, with glass blowing, it’s on the end of a blowpipe. So, you’re dancing with a partner that’s your blowpipe with the glass on the end. So it’s just really, it’s just a magic—it’s just magic, you know.
