the Aldrich staff testing out the movement instructions for the Dancing Boardwalk

…is one of the new outdoor projects I am producing at the Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art just north of New York City in Ridgefield, CT, as part of “Something for Everyone” – and yesterday we tested it out for the first time with some of the museum staff…

Assemble a group of friends or strangers, get up on the Dancing Boardwalk and start to move in the same direction, following the exact pace, movements, gestures, steps, and attitude of the person in front of you as closely as possible, and after a while you might ask, who is leading and who is following?
