Dance A Day

A new experimental dance video, every day — danced in public places and posted to the web.

Dance A Day is an ongoing personal project: for two nonconsecutive years I made and posted a new short dance video every single day, improvising in public places and everyday spaces and putting the result straight onto the web. The discipline of a daily deadline became its own kind of choreography — a way to keep making without waiting for the right stage, the right lighting, or the right moment.

Over time the archive has grown past seven hundred videos, and the work has found its way into college choreography and improvisation classes as a study in constraint, repetition, and site. The project continues to live online.
