"It isn’t dance as you would usually imagine it."

In this work we observe Antony Hamilton and Alisdair Macindoe, surrounded by 64 mechanised pencils, tapping away on the floor in a manic and inconsistent fashion.

The show is an hour of watching their hands and bodies moving in sync to a rapidly changing beat that is hard to follow as an audience member, let along move to. It isn’t dance as you would usually imagine it, but it requires all elements contemporary dance is known for: unwavering concentration, attention to detail, sustained movements and moving in isolation.
