hey guys! i just had this funny little idea-- what if i posted some choreography and each of you did your interpretation of it, filmed it, and sent it to me? it would all be to the same piece of music, and i would try to make the written instructions as clear as possible. but you could do whatever interpretations you want-- costumes, number of dancers, the space you choose, even the style of dance (alexis, YES, you could do it on pointe, i knew you would ask. wait, does alexis even read this?).
actually, do you think it should all be to the same piece of music? or should we just have counts, and then we could create music for it afterward?
i'm not sure what we would do with it when we are done, but i think there could be a lot of cool options. we could make a film out of it, or even just have it on record so that the next time we're all together, we could put it together into a little live performance. it's kind of just a lame little composition 101 exercise, but it could be cool just for a start, to try out long distance collaboration and see what happens.
also, i think we should communicate over the blog if we have any questions during the process (assuming you guys want to do this). or would it be more fun to communicate privately, which would maybe allow for more variation in each final product? i am curious to hear your thoughts.
