DANCE 67: Being S(c)ene: Dance, Fashion and Art as Exhibition

In everyday life we are constantly moving from the subjects of the public, to its objects--from seeing to being seen. This performance- creation, interactive seminar explores everyday/pedestrian movement as articulated through the language of dance. Looking through the interpretive lenses of fashion, dance and visual representation, we critically consider how we observe others and ourselves in the world, and how we respond performatively or unconsciously. In addition to seminars and rehearsals, we will host guest lectures by curators, artists and professors: incorporate fieldwork research in museums as sites of display, and discuss scholarly texts and films. A performance installation with dance, fashion and visual display will ensue in the galleries at the Cantor Arts Center at Stanford, in conjunction with the Fall 2013 exhibition, Carrie Mae Weems: Three Decades of Photography and Video.

DANCE 118: Developing Creativity In Dance

This introductory course explores the creative process in dance. There are many effective ways to approach creative expression, and this course will utilize multiple approaches, both in series and in parallel. Parallel processing and multitasking will become the dominant mode as rational, intuitive and physical skills merge. Processes will include changing perception, design by analogy, quick adaptation to changing situations, overcoming creative blocks, and stress reduction to relax into a more creative state of mind. Class sessions will alternate between theory and practice, with two-thirds of the class time spent in the dance studio, creating ways of moving, to embody the concepts that will be detailed in the discussion sessions. Students will study historical and current research on creativity, develop nonverbal kinesthetic languages, work on changing perception and breaking out of routine patterns, incorporate musicality into their dance creations, gain proficiency in adapting to changing situations, and develop individual styles of creativity, rather than looking for one "best" methodology. Dance forms will include modern dance, social dance (cross-step waltz) and jazz dance. Previous dance experience is not required.
