The Online Video Revolution will be Our Legacy -- Watch Twyla Tharp Dance with Me!!!! I believe that the implications of the revolution in online video are far more significant than the temporal entertainment and information we consume. All this video is becoming an archive, a collective legacy of our society and times -- for better or for worse. Sure, a great deal of community-generated video will end up in some digital trash heap, but much will exist well into the future. This living archive will be both a historical legacy and a guidebook to future generations. I had the extraordinary opportunity to spend time earlier this month with one of the most celebrated performing artists our time, choreographer Twyla Tharp. In my interview, Twyla explains why video has become the "text" or the language of dance. She's been taping her dances since the sixties. She sees her video archives as means to hand down her dance to future generations.I see an analogy with Twyla's vision of video as a historical notation -- and the current video revolution which will become our legacy. Our history is being published for the future right now.See this video on Beet.TV: http://www.beet.tv/2007/01/the...

I saw her company dance at the Kennedy Center in the 70s. From the few interviews I've seen, she is a little too full of herself, and I'd rather watch the dances, thankyouverymuch. But she's made some great dances. Nowhere near the the level of the work of the late Martha Graham, but still a great pop choreographer.

I danced with Twyla once at ADF. Crazy Fun!

Maybe she could put her whole archive online?

master class.great
For those considering buying a new vehicle, don't forget to check out the new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Great for adventures off road, just for cruising around town, or running to the store.

The new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser seats five and comes in two-tone with a Voodoo Blue, Titanium Metallic, Black Diamond, Sun Fusion, Sandstorm or Brick body color and White top. The interior fabric color is Dark Charcoal, while the dash, center instrument panel trim and the door inserts match the body.
