Proving once again that when you can't convince 'em with rhetoric, dazzle 'em with bullshit!

I'm trying to think of some way to question a dancer experimenting with her "art" in a way that forces her to actually try to make a credible answer and not retreat to that defensive position.

The trick, I think, is not to do it in such a way that it sounds like a challenge. Perhaps, sounding both supportive and clueless would give the insecure artist the confidence to talk more freely.

Something like, "That is very interesting! What inspired you to come up with this idea?"
