I was at the Museum of Modern Art for a series of short dance films from Sweden. Very cool, minus the technical glitches with the dvd player. Anyway, it was neat to see some films in familiar spaces....like HOUSES! Check some out...

Director: Marten Nilsson

Project Banter Dance Film Spectacular
This post begins a series of many that will document the process of my M.F.A culminating project. My colleague, Bethany, and I are creating a site-specific/dance film/video installation performance THING at a really great, local bar/cafe/coffee shop called Banter, in Denton, TX.

SO- with this info generated from the space and the people, I am going to make a movement score for one duet and one solo.
More to come!
If you're in Banter, watch out, something you do might be in my piece!
