New York-London Collaboration

So, our collaboration has been kicked off.

Katie is reading a "disturbing" book (quote Katie) and thought it would be interesting to do some collaboration on that. She read some paragraphs and recorded it and sent it to Andrew (http://www.andrewjgoldman.com/), a composer/pianist/clarinetist who is currently in London. Based on that Andrew is going to make music on GarageBand (and also compose a flute part for Katie to play), and I'm going to dance to it. I'll record what I do and send it to them for feedback. And we'll see what we want to do from there.

For now my idea is to dance outdoors. I'm going to be away (upstate NY) for the weekend and I think it'll be interesting to dance in different places, e.g. tennis court, lake shore, etc. I'll also try to play my dancing clip on a big screen in the background and I can dance with myself as a duet.

We had a meeting on Tuesday in class through Skype and decided the music was going to be 3 minutes long, no more no less. Awesome.
