S.J. Ewing & Dancers Citydance Ignite: Analog
S.J. Ewing & Dancers Citydance Ignite: Analog
I enjoyed your article, “Dancers Fill an Electric Void with a Slow-Burning Ballet” on
Roya Sach’s installation, VOID. It was a fascinating example of how immersive a
performance can be when movement and digital formats intersect. I think The Creative
Project readers would be interested in reading a preview about a similar dance work,
Analog, featuring S.J. Ewing & Dancers, choreographed by CityDance Ignite artist Sarah
J. Ewing.
I also love computer code, the automation of workflows and the beautiful logic that runs
databases and websites. It is everything that dance isn’t; reliable, consistent, and
permanent - and yet, for me, the process of creating a dance piece and designing a
database are the same. – S.J. Ewing
Analog will take place at Dance Place in Washington, D.C. on Saturday August 13 at 8
p.m. and Sunday, August 14 at 7 p.m. Analog is funded in part by the D.C. Commission
on the Arts & Humanities, an agency supported in part by the National Endowment for
the Arts.
If you are interested in more information about the work, I can arrange an interview with
Ewing at your convenience. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
