I was listening last night to the song/live recording Alternatives by Alternative TV (as you do - or not if you are unfortunate enough not to have lived through late 1970s punk). When I was much amused to hear the words:
'Can the dancers please get off the stage, the only people we want on the stage is people who want to say something'
Do dancers really have nothing to say, does dancing say nothing in itself, or did Mark Perry misspeak. There are so many places to go with this.
Anyway, so in reference to this maybe, I have been working on a dance archival project, the results aren't spectacular as yet, but we were starting from a low base. It has been very good tho to get to see so many dance performance examples. That I haven't archived that many is mainly due to the performers not yet giving archival permission when requested.
