Gibberish now, art later

This will probably make no sense to you, dear reader. It barely makes sense to me, and I wrote it. But for interest’s sake, here’s part 2 of the score in its next development for Points and Coordinates:

phrase 1. location: 4
occurrence 3 w/ phrase 2. location: 3. Dancer 3 initiates
occurrence 2 w/ phrase 2. location: 3. Dancer 2 initiates
gesture phrase clump. location: 2
occurrence 3 w/ phrase 1. location: 5. Dancer 3 initiates
lifts/weight shifts. location: 4
phrase 2. location: 6
body circle clumping. location: 2
occurrence 1 w/ phrase 2. location: 5. Dancer 1 initiates
occurrence 2 w/phrase 1. location: 2. Dancer 2 initiates
occurrence 1 w/ phrase 1. location: x. Dancer 1 initiates

Two things: 1. I need to load up on the fish for brain power, 2. I definitely know how to spell “occurrence.”

It’s action time

Here’s a post from when I was in planning phase. Now we’re in dancing phase. So here’s the info:

Dear Frame Dancers,

This in apology in advance for nightmare I will soon inflict upon you. Dexterous? You will be! Start those finger push-ups. And start memorizing these:

Don’t worry. I only need you to practice numbers 5 through 10. On each hand. In cannon, both hands moving at the same rate. In 6/8 time. Just a little head’s up! Negotiable? …maybe.

More press for WTCD and planning for tomorrow

Yesterday I picked up the posters, postcards and bookmarks to advertise the Weekend of Texas Contemporary Dance. They look amazing. They’ll be in public places in September and dance-friendly places (i.e. they won’t take them down before the show) now. If you have any ideas for where to post them, let me know.

Tomorrow we resume rehearsals for Points and Coordinates. It’s nice to go into this next rehearsal after seeing the space, the fantastically converted Contemporary Arts Museum. Today I will work to connect the score a bit, add dimension. “Occurrences” WITH coordinates, you might say… Check out this earlier post.

I also found some possible costumes today. Definitely not a definite, but a possibility. Fun.

Working on the post card. I have two designs, and am trying to decide between the two. If you want to be on the highly esteemed panel deciding which one to use, email me. I’d love your input! lydia.hance@framedance.org. Or tweet @framedance
