I would definitely agree with that. And I think if he were to make eye contact or whatever it is they're looking for, this connection would rather get lost... I think the kinds of emotions Johnny skates have to be transmitted this way. If a certain skater who shall not be named were to do his latest exhibition programs that way, that might not work, but I think Johnny is conveying very deep and introverted feelings (in lack of a better word), which come across precisely because he is turned inward rather than (superficially) toward the audience.
