Welcome Them!

Do you want this account to represent:: individual human (me), organization of humans (us) many of you

If you are representing an organization, what kind of organization? you may check more than one answer.: Company

First Name (Required: even if you are reprenting an organization you must use your name): Jack Gallagher

About Me (human/individual)/interests, work..short bio/ THis is the most important. It is the only way to know that you are not a SPAMBOT!Be generous!: I am a choreographer/teacher/dancer originally from Indiana, USA, now living and working in out of Amsterdam. I've worked on many interdisciplinary projects and helped develop a dance technique with Anouk van Dijk of the Netherlands called Counter Technique.

My work is beginning to tour beyond Holland and makes use of contemporary music of the electro acoustic variety and video projection. I've done explorations into Big Eye, and MoCap. But have yet to find my composers interface with Technology.

But hopefully the is a new generation of ideas out here.

I'm a big fan of people who want to take the dance arts deeper, further, wider than the recent tendency, as of late to capitalize on formulas of the historical/folk/pop traditions.

I'm studying Performative Speech Act Theory and Lacanian Psychology. I"m a research fellow at the Danslab, in Den Haag for the coming two years.

I hope I can participate in the network, connect with people about performance theory and compositional conjunctions... and bring the Danslab with me. (We are 5 practicioners from different origin and style what they do is up to them!)
