Formation of the only professional modern dance group in this country back in May resulted in its formal birthday at yesterdays opening night.

EnKnapGroup

The quintuplet of Ilkem Ulugün, Tomáš Nepšinský, Ana Štefanec, Luke Dunne & Katja Legin emerged from a selection of over 200 dancers. Since then they’ve been working on a premiere at Stara Elektrarna led by choreographers Iztok Kovač, Sašo Podgoršek & Andreja Rauch.

It’s always fun to be backstage on opening nights since everyone is running around trying to add just that final little touch. Usually it’s something only they notice. Nerves running wild and flying high on adrenaline…

As usual, more photos to be found in the gallery.

See how you’d do back in 1869 -> (via Pie & Hammer)

And if that’s not enough and you want to learn more, head over to OpenCourseWare @ MIT for some slightly updated course materials and tests.

I lost my Tempo and stormed out Didot. I shouted, ‘Avant Gardes posted Ronda clock! To Helvetica Mandarin chief! Peignot attention to him!’

“They said, ‘This Stymie went too far.’ Well, no more Beton Ronda bush. I admit I made some Eras. It cost me my Courier. Univers see it until it’s too late.

“Bodoni hurts when I laugh. Now, I spend my Times Roman the streets.” He walked away singing Myriad a Little Lamb.
I wondered Weidemann was saying all these crazy things.
