Evolution

[Deirdre Towers]

Marlon & I have been debating the design of an on-line component to dance on camera. We've explored some names, such as dance on camera: mash-up or Mash-Up Mambo. We've wondered whether to make it a contest to be judged by editors, to tie it to specific scores or themes, to offer prizes or to set it up as something more timeless, something that could continue into perpetuity.

Reading today that Charles Darwin would be 200 next year, I propose that we honor his theory of evolution. How to do this exactly? We could provide the "garden" of dance footage on-line and invite everyone to cross-pollinate.

Designing this venture challenges everyone and simultaneously pushes the merits of honing an idea.

We have a sponsor as of this afternoon.

More soon.
