Re: [Callers] Transgressions

Hi Seth, Ages ago you mentioned your dance Transgressions on SW and I made some snapshots of it. I checked callers box and notice that the link to the snapshots in the caller's notes of http://www.ibiblio.org/contradance/thecallersbox/dance.php?id=12040 is no longer valid as picasaweb is dead. I've moved the snap shots here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/uxB2Qh4Ya7K31cBX7 so you can send an update to Chris to fix the callers box listing. I've also added a few more snapshots of the paths and neighbors met. Luke Donforth wrote a very interesting grid contra which he called Pong. It has both progression and transgression which changes during the dance. The paths of couples are diagonal but bounce off the boundary of the grid, thus solving the problem of some couples not moving very much or at all. However this was at the expense of have 'changing states' that dancers had to be aware of. https://www.mail-archive.com/callers@lists.sharedweight.net/msg10581.html http://www.madrobincallers.org/2017/09/19/pong-a-grid-contra/ I had corresponded quite a bit about it. He actually tried the dance at one point. I've attached some comments about it and this is video about the math https://youtu.be/S_qCbQIAFbQ Cheers, Bill
