Listen "Viewfinder: Dance for Every Body"
Episode Synopsis
“One in four people in the US have a disability that impacts a major part of their life….What if the dance world reflected that statistic? (via @stanceondance)”Whether intentionally or not, the dance world often privileges certain types of bodies and abilities, which can raise a barrier to potential ideas and creation. In this episode, we cover an array of films that make visible the unique physicality of performers who are often marginalized in the dance community.We discuss the barriers inherent to presentations of screendance (both on and off the screen) and propose strategies as to how they can be/are being overcome. We also had the chance to speak with Marc Brew about his experience creating physically integrated dance for camera.*Episode transcript available upon request.
