Description
Content description from Walker Art (https://walkerart.org/calendar/2014/alive-center) :
This 1986 program showcases three dance works by American choreographers. Accumulation with Talking Plus Water Motor is a virtuosic dance in which Trisha Brown navigates telling three stories and performing two dances—all at the same time. This segment, directed by Jonathan Demme, is a coproduction between KTCA, KCET, UCLA, and the Trisha Brown Company. The haunting Caught, by the Paul Taylor Dance Company’s David Parsons, was produced for television by Roberto Romano, with music by guitarist and composer Robert Fripp. Charles Moulton’s athletic 9 Person Precision Ball Passing was directed by video artist Skip Blumberg and produced by KTCA.
