'Takes' mingles dance, multimedia for fleeting magic

Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: "Writing grants, it turns out, can be good for more than raising money. The process of putting creative concepts into words can be a clarifying process for the artists.
That's what choreographer Nichole Canuso discovered when she and Lars Jan, who does media installations, sought funding for a big project they wanted to do together. The grant, from the Pew Center for Art and Heritage, supported the research and development of her new piece 'Takes,' which lasts just under an hour.

I love how media design is working its way into the dance world. It's really interesting to see and hear about the different ways to compliment dancers. I love to see something other than the typical color wash in the background as dancers perform.
