- catalog abstract "Before Mr. Cunningham spoke to a crowd of 225 people in Agassiz Theatre, his 25-minute dance video piece "Points in Space" was screened. He then talked about the way "Points in Space" was created and showed how the choreography was very much created with the video camera -- the movements very much shaped for the camera's eye. As he works with video, he finds ways to add the art of filming to the movement -- finding ways to inhance and shape the movement in new ways for film rather than trying to "capture" a separate art of dance created for the stage onto the camera which never entirely works, he said. He also talked about how and why the music for the piece, composed by John Cage, was something created entirely separately; the composer does not see the choreography before completing the work. Both he and John Cage, who has composed music for many of his pieces, believe that the only thing in common between the two art forms is that they take place at the same time.".
