This is something that has been lying around for a while.
Just a sketch.
Not too sure what to do with it.
This is how i work.
I like to get out an initial phrase that is very basic in structure. This way i will be able to retain the info while thinking about how to let the movement evolve organically. Watching the dancers interpretation of the phrase i am able to see other moments that i can later detail. That is why i call this phase a “Sketch”. The movement right now is in its embryotic phase. Who knows what it will grow up to be?(Don’t get me wrong. I have a pretty good idea)
dancer: Dana Genshaft.
HAPPY BELATED BDAY DANA!!!
ps. The game of “SKATE” got postponed until this Sunday. Lucky me…….?

I can totally relate to working this way. I like the grounded-ness of the movement.
