[Video Link] Lucy McRae was trained as a classical ballerina and an architect, and her work as a "body architect" incorporates these interests and more. She is the recipient of a TED Fellowship. I interviewed her this morning at TED 2012.

    I love her. Such an enjoyable, fun and curious personality she seems to have.

    Her former partner in crime Bart Hess (which she forgot to mention by the way) is far more interesting I think.

    My apologies but I’m just not impressed. 
    Live stage and cinema have done the same for decades. 
    Nothing new or different here save for the zippy new title, “body architect”.
