An improvisation based on a concept of Wincky Hoedt, 2009

This short film is from the contemporary dance performance 'Bho' by Samadhi Dance Company and features Dancer Vraja Sundari Keilman.

PINA is a feature-length dance film in 3D with the ensemble of the Tanztheater Wuppertal featuring the unique and inspiring art of the great German choreographer Pina Bausch, who died in the summer of 2009, just before the film was made.

Director Wim Wenders was a long-standing friend of Pina's. Wenders takes the audience on a sensual, visually stunning journey of discovery into a new dimension: straight onto the stage with the legendary ensemble and follows the dancers out of the theatre into the city and the surrounding areas of Wuppertal - the place, which for 35 years was the home of Pina Bausch. PINA reinvigorates the way 3D film technology can be used.

This is a must see film! Hope you all check it out.

Enjoy the Electric Boogie moves by Jigsaw, from NYC's very own boggie-down Bronx.

The concept behind "Closed" is leaving the stress, haters, and obstacles behind to follow your dreams. (A fitting concept for the gloomy weather here today in NYC). Since there are so many ways to get caught up in negative circles of people who don't even know how to show you proper respect or appreciation, I think Jigsaw's concept is also good advice.

D-Efeitos (D-FX) uses the music genre Glitch Music - Electronic Music with "erroneously" sounding glitches in the rythmic programming - and several techniques from Urban Dances as Waving, Robotting, Animation and Warping. In these musical 'defects', the cast of D-Efeitos executes the fragmented and vibrating dance, accelerating and decelerating, performing the song as a mathematical artistic expression. Vibrations on the sound waves become vibration and body waves. Sound delays manipulate the moves in a simulation of break in space-time. Each one of the notes and musical flaws are explored to become movement and body illusions.

Enjoy the DANCE VIDEO OF THE DAY: "Jiří Kylián's Car men"

Exactly 20 years separate Jirí Kylián's solo Silent Cries and his black-and-white film, Car Men, made in 2006 in collaboration with the Dutch filmmaker, Boris Paval Cone. What unites the two works is the sheer expressiveness of the dance on the one hand, and the distinctive facial gestures and body language of the dancer Sabine Kupferberg on the other. Kupferberg is the one who pulls the strings in Car Men, victim and plotter in equal measure, prepared at all times to stand up to life's problems -- as well as to her three co-actors Escamillo, Don José and Micaëla -- with humor and enigmatic wit.
