Description
2 videocassettes (U-matic, NTSC) (110 min.) : sd., col.; 3/4 in.
Summary
Five choreographers with extensive experience in site-specific performance discuss their decision to work outside traditional theater spaces; the artistic, practical, and economic challenges of making site-specific works; and the development of new audiences through innovative performance venues and the use of new technology such as electronic media. In the second half of the discussion (cassette 2), the panelists show and discuss slides of their works, including Monk's Juice, Needle-brain Lloyd and the systems kid, and Vessel; Streb's Wall, Impact, Surface, and Look up; Haigood's Chomu (Butterfly dreams) and Meditation; Rogoff's Ivye project; and projects sponsored by Bernhardt's Dancing in the Streets, among them Monk's American archeology.
