In the NY Times: <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Jody Sperling made dance an art of transformation in the program of solos presented by Jody Sperling/Time Lapse Dance on Friday night. Over the years, Ms. Sperling has staged several productions inspired by the experiments of Loie Fuller, an early-20th-century modern dancer who created magical effects with elaborate costumes and lighting. Ms. Sperling's newest tribute to Fuller was "Dance of the Elements," to piano pieces by various composers recorded by Jeffrey Middleton.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><A HREF="http://www.nytimes.com/2002/03/27/arts/dance/27ROUN.html" TARGET=_blank>More in the fourth section of linked article</A>

Bashful mountebanks
Jody Sperling at CMAC

.... Sperling’s Time Lapse Dance performance last Friday at the Cambridge Multicultural Arts Center paid tribute to a bygone generation’s popular entertainers. Sperling’s muse, Loie Fuller, symbolized the first wave of modern culture, which foamed up from the convergence of art, technology, and urbanism at the turn of the 20th century.
