Abstract
The statement conveyed by much dance video, screendance and mixed media work is always greater than the sum of its parts. And the parts push each other beyond dance technique and video technology to create a work that is both dance and video (or, video and dance). The collaboration between dance and the camera is like a tango: the two mediums, like the dancers, are mutually supportive and full of surprises, incorporating twists and reconfigurations of the material, but always maintaining a concern for how the two fit together, and a sensitivity about the actual bodies of the individuals dancing. In this way, dance and video intertwine to produce a work—and a genre—that does not and cannot exist in any other form.
