36-minute Stand

To facilitate your community’s practice of Steve Paxton’s “small dance of standing,” we have gathered some materials on http://myriadicity.net/ci36/satellite-events

• some tips from longtime contactor Karen Nelson for leading a stand
• an edited transcription of Steve Paxton leading a stand (reprinted from Contact Quarterly’s CI Sourcebook), with notes added recently by Steve for CI36.

Find Steve's Trasncription at: http://myriadicity.net/ci36/satellite-events/the-small-dance-the-stand

We cooled down Pass the Dance with the Stand. And then we built up our energy for the Jam. A wonderful day. It may become tradition.

I proposed a non-locally connected dance to take place at ci36. (see forum discussion I just started about that.)
A group making (cell phone, &c) contacts with distant dancers during a stand might be an interesting way to extend ourself.
Anyone interested in such exploration?
