August 20, 2010

Ivana Jozic‘s interview came just in time to start my covering of William Forsythe‘s web project and data vizualization concept titled  Synchronous Objects… Let’s check his piece One Flat Thing – Reproduced (2000) as a first post regarding this topic.

William Forsythe  is an American dancer and choreographer resident in Frankfurt am Main in Hessen. He is known internationally for his work with the Ballett Frankfurt (1984–2004) and The Forsythe Company (2005–present). His early dance works are acknowledged for reorienting the practice of ballet from its identification with classical repertoire to a dynamic 21st-century art form, while his more recent works have further extended his research on the performative potentials of dance and his investigation of choreography as a fundamental principle of organization.
