3) S.0.1.FünfDa•Da•Dance Project

Fünf are five multi-instrumentalists who, while regular performers with live bands, are proponents of using the recording studio as an instrument. As a result, Fünf compositions evolve as if they were live band pieces, dynamic and musical, taking many unexpected detours. Each piece begins as a “seed track” created by one member. It is then emailed to the next member. The next member adds new elements – acoustic/electronic instruments, samples – and sends it to the next member. A duet repertory company, Da•Da•Dance Project challenges conventional notions of art making with travesty, absurdity, and physical authenticity. We continuously seek to find a language that speaks, communicates and delivers uniquely expressive vocabulary, to reveal our eccentricity. Dancers: Guillermo Ortega Tanus and Eun Jung Choi-Gonzalez

57) Magic SidelinePaul RusselDeliquescent?

“Magic Sideline was an experiment with lots of things. Growing up I used to listen exclusively to hardcore punk with the belief that songs shouldn't exceed the 1-2 minute mark.

So naturally when I heard about 60x60 I was delighted.”-Paul Russel Deliquescent? Dancers: Stephanie Dixon(12:30pm) Stephanie Dixon and Tamora Petitt(7:00pm)

60) Big Donut David Hahn Finale

While sitting in a cafe at 8:30 am, I noticed a mother and her 3-year-old daughter. The girl happily wore a whipped cream mustache from the hot chocolate she was drinking. Realizing, however, that the offered donut was nor of adequate size, she began to complain. Her dissatisfaction quickly escalated into a full-blown kicking-and-screaming tantrum, while her mother--scratched and fully distressed--had to make a hasty exit. From an early age, David Hahn was forced to wake up before dawn to begin an hours-long trudge through frost-bitten and dilapidated industrial ghettos to get to his job making donuts in a major American metropolis. Despite all odds--or perhaps because of it--he was able to learn the basics of music composition from a fellow survivor and trans-fat connoisseur. Improvisation structure: Jeramy Zimmerman. Dancers: full cast.
