bodylanguage and music : a successful performance of the young dancer miha ciglar

the evening started (or ended) at the mkl with a performance by miha ciglar, who danced synchron to the music, generated by her "helper" on the computer. About three times I was asked during the performance from some passers-by, what "that" should be...this is art ? ---Yes, No, Yes, -just as you want it.(like it always it is in the field of art)It´s dancing, it is expression of the body to the machine-sounds. The coincidence of the body-movements to the sound was accurate. Sometimes like a robotic, sometimes to associate with just classicial ballett. The main thing about might have been, that the guy on the computer just generated the music in time, and miha didn´t know exactly, how long it will go on, or what kind of tones will be exactly produced. But I guess, they agreed on the most things, otherwise this level of harmony wouldn´t be possible to achieve.

at all, the performance was a successful entry into the pd-week and attracted a lot of courios people due to the spectacular presentation: a woman dancing at this place, where apart from that just freaky guys are sitting in front /or "in"/ the computer...

an enjoyable evening.
