Second week of the COOL NEW YORK 2010 DANCE FESTIVAL

Dear Friends of WHITE WAVE,

The first week of the COOL NEW YORK 2010 DANCE FESTIVAL has been exhilarating. Our festive Opening Night last Wednesday and all nine shows following were attended by standing-room only crowds at our John Ryan Theater. We are thrilled that WNBC-TV Channel 4 covered our 7th Annual COOL NEW YORK DANCE FESTIVAL on their Saturday morning news broadcast!

Last weekend was bitterly cold, but that was no deterrent to throngs of dance lovers who stood in line on a wind… Continue

September Art and Dance Seminars and Speaking Programs

I'm speaking at two programs in September: First up, I'm conducting two Internet workshops at the NYS Arts Summit 2009 in Schenectady, New York from September 22nd-23rd. The first workshop is a nuts-and-bolts introduction to Facebook and Twitter. And the second workshop will offer a strategic overview of Facebook and Twitter with examples of how arts organizations are using these tools. Both sessions are hands-on and participants are encouraged to bring their computers and connect via Wi-Fi. Then, on September 29th, I'll be on a Movement Research Panel: "Towards an Adjudication Model for Dance Criticism," here in Manhattan. If you can make it to one or both of the programs, please let me know.

Introducing KidsMakeDance

Kathleen Isaac, a dance teacher at PS 165 in Flushing, Queens, and I are delighted to launch KidsMakeDance. The main objective of KidsMakeDance is to develop a new educational approach and framework to child-centered dance-making that integrates proven dance teaching methodologies with the Internet, digital technologies and social media.
KidsMakeDance
Our first pilot project is next week. "KidsMakeHipHop" with Carlos Cordova from Souljerz Crew will take place in Flushing from July 27 - 31, 2009. Kathleen, Carlos and I will be working with kids from Kathleen's PS 165 Dance Company and we and the students will be documenting (video, pictures and text) the creative process online during and following the program.
