Assignment:
Creative Group Study
Each group selects an idea for movement, develops and creates a brief dance
study, and shares this study with the class.
Thursday May 7th
Each group will search for and select a haiku or poem; this will be the idea
or catalyst for the creation of your group movement study.
Three examples of haiku (kindly
provided by Dr. Hutchinson):
Old dark sleepy pool...
quick unexpected frog
goes plop!
Watersplash!
Lightning flash, crash...
waiting in the bamboo
grove
see three dewdrops fall
Leaf falling on leaf
on piled-up leaves...
rain splashing
in pools
