cross cultural appropriation yes please!

[leeleemoss]

great, intelligent couple coop in a variety of ways

[leeleemoss]

now just because you combine one million different things, this by no means guarantees 'good' - however relative as well as in the eye of the beholder that may be...

[leeleemoss]

grand technique, great choreo, only why there was a/that chair nobody really knows - nor why this is called 'Pisces' - or am I missing something??? but, what I do really like: the strong and mature presence of Wan Ting Zhao! (credits: choreo, music?; alternate title: 'Hair'?? or net, maybe...)

[leeleemoss]

and this is the possible antidote to Forsythe's 'Black Flags'? (the latter which having me think of the flags of ISIS actually) not sure however, how much this 'Tragédie' is about life, renewal and transformation - and tht exactly may be the tragedy...

[leeleemoss]

yes... and, no :( (not sure how much it is the audience interference spoiling this - choreo and Misty def are a yes - in a different venue maybe?)

[leeleemoss]

Dance Of Death (Black Flags) now this is an insane amount of matter, technology, time, energy and m.o.n.e.y. resulting in exactly what?? replacing body, human movement, motion with total technocrazy - and a lot of noise that definitely is not. music to my ears... I am sorry to say, but this is not creative force at work, but mindfuck... the only interesting thing, how everybody had to eventually yield to the invisible, to the air(!), the power of oxygen... now imagine people being in this space, and their effect - it may just tangle up everything after all and create a huge mess - and this would be just lovely! can anyone bring in some flowers to this funeral, please?!?

[leeleemoss]

hmmm... unfortunately not really :( (the trailer, I mean...)

[leeleemoss]

and of this even less... (besides the most certainly commendable charitable cause - which is copying Dudamel??) sorry, if I sound negative...

[leeleemoss]

really not sure wht to make of this...

[leeleemoss]

not getting any better…

and, the orig would actually have been a l.o.t. better w 2 girls… similar in size and age, Maddie and Mackie perhaps… taking up the notion of split personality of sorts… in any case.

[leeleemoss]

'Elastic Heart' - Sia am I the only one who finds this dance more than slightly disturbing? the interview w Maddie slightly easing my concern - or, maybe not... (it will be very interesting to see where/how she is in 10, 15 years... not for this vid per se, but for all of it)

[leeleemoss]

this is. crazy!! and sad, how their lives continued on... http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ross_Sisters also, not surprised about the need to become a chiropractor...

[leeleemoss]

'Strandbeest' some other kind of ballet...

[leeleemoss]

'Glass Awakening' by Moses Pendleton with Diana Vishneva speaking of physical geometry... this is ingenious (except for the toe-flapping maybe... and honestly not crazy about the music, even though I am a huge fan of the work of Lisa Gerard)

[leeleemoss]

I take it I will always love the pure physical geometry of Forsythe...

[leeleemoss]

not. really not, unfortunately :( the cityscape and greyscale do work, as does the score... (and some of her movements) still, bummer to me
