dancing BORDOM!!!

A excerpt from the most recent rehearsal. This shows a re-working of the ending.

another rehearsal…

Today I edited a video of a recent rehearsal video. I have put up a bunch of clips in sequential order of the piece.

A short piece description.

BOREDOM!!! (as an amplifier) is a performance that exposes the intersections of dance and sound through the vibratory presence of both forms. This is a performance in which the live manipulation of electronic sound equipment creates the basis for the movement vocabulary, which shuffles between a contemplative static quality and a quietly explosive shaking. The performance addresses the place of presentation and collapses the magic of the theater, thus creating an exposed and complicated situation for both audience and performers.

This is a fairly long clip of performance that was presented by Danspace Project at St. Mark’s Church. It was part of their ongoing series Food for Thought. The evening which was curated by Miguel Gutierrez was titled The Young Americans. I apologize for the poor quality of the video.

Some reviews here and here and here. Not the most interesting though.

Boredom with objects!

This is an excerpt from the performance Boredom with objects! It was performed at Dance Theater Workshop in November of 2005. Here is a review from Gia Kourlas of the NY Times. This performance was part of the Fresh Tracks Residency Program of 2005-06.
