The Best Dance of the 00s

[Christopher Engdahl]

The best dance of the 00s!

First but not least, in 2008 Barack dances his way to his new task in Dance Off!


In 2006 the Bande à Part dance is shown for the first time at You Tube.


i.e. All All Over Over All All et. al by Mårten Spångberg and Tor Lindstrand is shown at The House of Dance in Stockholm, Sweden in 2002. Giving insight into the way images of images of images are produced, reproduced and mediatised.


Now going back to the future, I look back to January 2009 and the T-mobile Dance that is presented at Liverpool Street Station in London. There is a clear aim; to increase the market value of this specific product, and to have a dancing moment at one of the most busy places in London.


The piece Xavier Le Roy is created in 2000 with Jérôme Bel as its author and Xavier Le Roy as its creator. This piece, at the dawn of the new Century, indicates an increase of the dancer him/herself as author/creator/mediator. I haven't seen this piece but heard and talked about it, experienced it through the magic of reference. Maybe someone else have had a first person encounter with this piece?


Who would have thought that the dance with one of the decade's largest audience (have had more than 133 million spectators up until today) would be an American motivational speaker doing a dance remix? Here's Evolution of Dance from 2006.
