If you haven't done so, take a look at Cary Ravitz's web site on contra
dance choreography. His discussion of black boxes might help in
situations like this where you need a combination to get from one place
to another.
I am need of some choreographic gerrymandering from
the braintrust.
I have the flow the way I want in a dance that first gelled about 10
years but when some folks walked it through for me, more recently,
they said, "uh, Ken, I'm not swinging my N, it's my P."
"Dang," said I.
Here's the dance. the problem is "How do I get neighbours who are
beside each other in an ocean wave (A1) to the other side of the set
for a swing?" (A2) (short of calling on Mr. Scott for a teleport)
So, I need the first half of A2.
Return from Vulcan Becket
A1 (8) Cir L 1.0
(8) Slide left and cir 3/4 the next couple to a wavy line.
A2 (4,6,8?) (balance wave, not critical) get gent to other side of set
with neighbour [hmmm... Ladies alle L 1/2, P alle R 1/2, Gents alle L
1/2 - I'm not convinced]
(12,10,8?) N Swing
B1 (8) Gents alle L 1.5
(8) Scoop P in star promenade/B'fly Whirl
B2 (8) Ladies alle R 1.5 while gents orbit CCW
(8) P Swing
Thanks for any ideas.
