On key discoveries in dance voodles

"I like to produce moving images that seems out of range, to enlarge the range and add things to what we think of as video-blogging…. From the beginning — like the other discoveries, such as separating music and movement — Voodling has constantly brought up other possibilities. There is always some other way to do it…. Voodling is another way found to deal with the question of what movement can be. Voodling has opened it up to me. It has broadened what I think of as possible in dance-voodles."

Paraphrasing (again) and grossly cross-changing terminologies, Sam Renseiw enables some pataphysical observations through Cunningham's "Four Key Discoveries", while condensing some recent footage into clear-cut dance-voodles.

"…our brain contains something akin both to a photographic plate and a phonographic cylinder, and many other things of the same kind not yet discovered; not a sight or a sound or a smell is lost; not a taste or feeling or an emotion. Unconscious memory records them all, without our even heeding what goes on around us beyond the things that attract our immediate interest or attention. […]...the Voodle should not have to do with an exploit or record, it would be neither a peak to scale nor an ocean floor to reach ... [it] would not be heroic, or spectacular; it would be something simple and discreet."

Trapped by an overflowed harddisk and simultaneous chores, Sam Renseiw nevertheless managed to voodle around in his spare time, montage-ing bits of footage anyway.
