A Minute a Day 1 (a MaD)

While in rehearsal for 60 dances in 60 Minutes (working title), we will record 1 minute of rehearsal at 1pm (more or less). The minute will be variable. No watches or timers allowed. I start the camera, and stop when I think a minute is gone by.

Today is the first.



We have been trying to both train and disrupt our sense of a minute. Many tasks that end when the performer thinks a minute has passed. Today at 1pm we were in the middle of doing laps at different intervals and agreeing when a minute passed.

Maybe tomorrow I will use the high quality setting on the camera (we are just using a still digital.)
