FOR PEOPLE NOT ON PHONES (February 2009)
SHREDS (August 2007)
As with any art form or craft, there are always bits left over that never manifest into anything more than what they are.
In August 2007 Purest Spiritual Pigs presented SHREDS.
In this production Helena Thompson gave sound remnants (ranging from 30 seconds to 2 minutes) to the following artists: Jessica Cressey, Sarah Gordon, Susan Scalf, Jaime Carrera, Hijack, and Dylan Skybrook. The 18 tracks they chose from, could be used in any way the choreographers wanted. The links below are video excerpts from SHREDS.
COLD MARBLE EXCHANGE (2007)
This video was created by utilizing raw footage of HIJACK (a Minneapolis based dance group) rehearsal video. The footage was then manipulated, butchered, and regurgitated by Helena Thompson.
