I just listened to Rafael Bonachela's interview with Olivia Stewart. Very inspiring!
Meet the new artistic director of the Sydney Dance Company: Rafael Bonachela. His first work for the company is a production called 360°. It's on in Brisbane until April 25, and then goes to Adelaide and Melbourne next month. Click on the following to hear the full interview with ABC Radio National's Artworks:

As well as telling us a little of his life's story Rafael tells us about the musical inspiration behind this current production and about We Unfold, which has just been on in Sydney.
See why Olivia Stewart from The Courier Mail calls 360° a "sensory assault" and why she believes "Rafael Bonachela looks set to continue SDC's classy aesthetic."

Hi,
together with Susan Elena (fireboxdancetheatre.co.uk) I am right now part of an exciting project organised by Anna Ramsay to create screendance videos for Big in Falkirk (http://www.biginfalkirk.com/).
It's great fun with the 22 kids who are between 6-12years old. The boys and girls are super energetic and totally into dance and keen to put something together for the videos. The moment they know the camera is rolling they are completely focused and total pros!
However, what absolutely positively surprised me was that when we showed them some DVDs as part of the introduction to screendance they absolutely understood how the digital effects were done and could even explain most of them. Wow, the next generation grows up with such a different understanding and approach to the digital world! But saying this, the group of youngster made very quickly clear to us that although they enjoy watching the dance scenes from "Step Up", they actually want to get up and make their own and be active rather than passively sit around and stare at a screen. I love this!
Looking forward to the next couple of days!
