March 11, 2010 · Posted by Body Pixel ·

This week in New York: koosil-ja!
March 3, 2010 · Posted by Dance Theater Workshop ·
“…Koosil-ja and her company, danceKUMIKO, present the New York premiere of BLOCKS OF CONTINUALITY / BODY, IMAGE, AND ALGORITHM, her latest examination of movement and the human body utilizing live processing, interactive computer programming, and 3D imaging, influenced by the conceptual theories of French philosopher and self-described “pure metaphysician” Gilles Deleuze. While that might sound like a lot to take in at one time, it has the potential to be one helluva mind-blowing experience. ” - Mark Rifkin

Arts for Art’s 7th annual Vision Collaboration Nights, which kicks off tonight, will explore dialogues in sound, space, and movement. Drawing from the legacy of Merce Cunningham and John Cage’s explorations into sound-movement collaborations and the use of chance and improvisation in live works, the festival has paired dancers and musicians who will meet on stage, collaborate, and create a moving dialogue with Jo Wood-Brown’s site-specific art installation. The festival will feature three different pairs of dancers and musicians each night for the next four nights, along with a closing improvisation for all of the artists. Here’s the full line-up ...
Literal Moral Obligations
February 21, 2010 · Posted by Widening the I ·
Here’s a quote from the composer Nico Muhly that I’ve been swirling around in my brain for a few days; he’s writing about Tan Dun’s newest opera Tea:
“What I am interested in, here, though, is the idea that maybe I’m crazy and maybe what occurred, vis-à-vis That Libretto, is totally great and fine and I’m just having a strange reaction. But the other thing is this: thousands of people have seen this opera, in a variety of stages. Did anybody every perhaps lightly interrogate the libretto? This is an issue particularly close to my heart at this time; my opera ...
