[Callers] The Survey Form

You may reply to the whole list or to me personally: acann(a)putneyschool.org I will compile all lists and, when the project's done, post the compilation and their paper/presentation so all the rest of us theory wonks can read it too! 1a - Can you list your three favorite transitions (sequence of two figures) in terms of flow, how they connect? 1b - What about your three least favorite? 2a - What is the dance that embodies the words flowing, elegant, smooth the most to you? 2b - What is the dance that embodies them the least? 3a - Are there any dances you know and love, that are wonderfully satisfying, but are not necessarily smooth or flowing? 3a - Why do these dances work, if it's not the flow? Note: the students will not see your answers to Question 3a at first. We're going to let them discover the other "satisfyers" on their own -- good story line, social tension and reward, the "oh cool, that's so ingenious!" factor.
