Videotaped by Charles Daniels!
This is a piece that represents a 6 month collaboration by me and Composer John Morrison (of the Longy School of Music in Cambridge MA).
It is based on an elemental map we created that was loosely derived from the landscape of a Japanese Brush Painting. The movement is spare
and the sound so too. It is improvised according to the areas traversed on the map by the travelers. In this case, me (Ellen), the mover, and Dennis
Shafer (bari sax) and Wei Wang (Trombone). We performed this at the BU Dance Theater in Boston Massachusetts in November 2009 for the Juddertone
Performance Series.
