Aerial Choreography Notation project

Early experiment of gif notation for ~30s of a duo act. By contrast, a verbal description of the 6 panels above would be: mirrored frog squat and catchers, transition to back balance, roll to duo right meathook, R pikes over the bar and M left leg hooks and climbs, duo split to left-knee catch, dévelopée out for duo bell beat prep. ...

aerial x a/v reactive sketches

"dearly undeparted", duo aerial hoop act in the "weddings and funerals" twisted windows show

myles and i performed our duo act at spire the church thanks to a show production via twisted windows; the most fleshed-out narrative we’ve ever had for this show (flesh husband attempts to resurrect ghost husband in a séance, set to seven devils). it was my first time performing with twisted windows and i thought it was run very well; we were the last act and the audience was really hyped for our performance. i wish i could have networked a bit more but i was so exhausted after being there for 6 hours (i basically showed up and tech rehearsal and stayed in the cold and cramped greenroom all night). ...

duo slime shoot (flesh ghost)

slime photoshoot (because it seemed like a good idea at the time) for myles and i, shot in my home studio it was a lot more cold and uncomfortable than i thought it was going to be, and we only had the capacity to do one or two poses.
