"Dialoge with Lucinda" and Flocking

Yesterday evening I saw these two dance performances:



Nicole Beutler remade two dance pieces from Lucinda Childs (look up).
These two beautiful pieces made me think of the flocks of starlings:
- Their movement is based on simple rules.
- They never bump into each other.
- It is beautiful and mesmerizing to watch.

Also "flocking" is a dance technique where dance is created by the same rules as birds flock.

  1. Nice ones! Another dance performance I like is cut-outs & trees where the movement of the dancers influence a moving digital forest: http://www.ccap.se/cut_outs_trees/video.html
