I
n August 1977 NASA sent into outer space a phonographic recording, the “Golden Record,”
containing sounds and images selected to portray the diversity of life
and culture on Earth with hopes of some day communicating to intelligent
life. Sanspointe dance artists Lynn Andrews and Rhea Speights
choreographed a dance response to this cultural capsule, a dance which
ranges from satirical to earnest and makes physical humanity's attempt
to project ourselves beyond our own time span.
Performed by Margaret Armstrong, Shellie Chambers, Stella Nystrom and Catherine Vancak with Taryn Packheiser and Rhea Speights
