Continues DANC 3510. Asks students to merge individual creativity with acquired compositional skill. Students create solos, duets, and small group works while considering the way that sound scores influence the experience of movement studies. This intermediate-level course offers students an opportunity to obtain a broader choreographic tool kit and a context for working within differing aesthetic conventions. Examines the politics of aesthetics, forcing students to locate themselves within broader historical, artistic, and cultural frameworks. Through assigned readings, video and live performance viewings, written work, and class discussion, students may develop deeper analytical skills and greater clarity about their personal voice as dance makers and how choreography functions as a mirror for the times in which we live.
