June 26 Dance Craft Revolution

Dance performance is a rare bird. It's expensive to make and has a small audience. One way to extend that audience is by video. That changes the black box experience with the possibility of multiple cameras and editing, and moves the audience into a different set of expectations. Tonight Adam Sekuler and Shannon Stewart have put together a program of NW dance performances on the moving screen. That includes Interpretive Site: Hanford Reach by Karn Junkinsmith and Adam Sekuler, Alternator by Rodrigo Valenzuela and Molly Sides, Transfer by Patrick Weishampel and tEEth, Contact by Mitchell Rose and Body Vox, In Transit by Meredith Horiuchi, Shannon Stewart, and Adam Sekuler, Prototype XXXX by Andra Rotaru, Robert Tyree, and Dicky Dahl, Airport Project by Alice Gosti, Guerilla Fire by Maria Allred, 1922 by Adam Sekuler, Daniel Mimura, Shannon Stewart, Meredith Horiuchi, Rosa Vissers, David Wolbrecht, Aaron Swartzman, and Jeff Huston and finally White of Spring by Jacob Rosen and Kate Wallich.
