WHEN I DANCE
Web-based program expresses physical and emotional
responses and memories evoked by dance.
Visitors are asked to share dance
experiences - major, minor and those in between. In crowds, in showers and
office building elevators they're doing it everywhere. We've found the nuance of
dance can be healing, therapeutic, inspiring and inherit to all of us.
Important? I don't know. Cool to watch? You bettcha.
Something to take advantage of? Why not?

DANCE HERE!
Interactive media production features video footage of
on-site dance works, music soundtrack, prints and live video feed of
"participants" that step up to an x-marked spot labeled, DANCE HERE!
In a
thirty-day installation, hundreds of gallery visitors viewed dance images as
well as one another as many accepted the invitation to dance. Children and the
young at heart had the most fun. Many returning for sequels and development of
their on-air presentation. As a whole, men tended to pull in their middles and
women to smooth out and tuck in hips and bottoms. But a surprising number went
right for the boogie, like they were looking for just this spot, this
opportunity to dance.
