Alive from Off Center - Season 2 Episode 7 Three Choreographers
Hosted by Susan Stamberg, the program features dance pieces by Charles Moulton, David Parsons, Trisha Brown, and Skip Blumberg. "Nine Person Precision Ball Passing," choreographed by Charles Moulton, involves three rows of three dancers each, passing balls to each other in quick, rhythmic formations that form increasingly intricate patterns. In "Caught," a stark, solo piece by David Parsons, filmed in black-and-white, the dancer's movements are captured in an intense strobe flash. In the third piece, "Accumulation With Talking Plus Watermotor," filmed by Jonathan Demme, choreographer Trisha Brown performs a dance while talking about its evolution since 1971. In the final piece, "Towards A Minimal Choreography" by video artist Skip Blumberg (shown after the program's closing credits), shots of a skater moving back and forth across the ice at a distance are intercut with closeups of his skates in motion.
