This summer at Misnomer has been an exciting one!  In addition to an influx of amazing interns, we have embraced a few new stellar staff members in the past month.  Sarah Benvenuti joined us as our General Manager, and Larry Henry as the Director of Partnerships and Development.  Larry and Sarah have been helping us prepare for an exciting fall (more on that soon- look for a notice in August!), and have quickly become a part of the Misnomer family.

Artistically we’ve been fast at work, having some great rehearsals and enjoying our Tenant Company Residency at The Joyce Theater’s Dance Art New York studios. We had a fun evening of performance and play at our Summer Soiree, hosted by one of our Board members, Betsy Poirier.  One of our superstar interns, Sebastian Kliment, created this time-lapse video of the event so that you could have a sneak peek!

We’ve got many more events coming up this fall for you to see our work in progress and to meet our growing family. We’re also excited to have you join us in a dialogue around AEP and to join us on our adventures here at Misnomer! We’ll see you soon!

Back in January, The Sundance Channel featured Misnomer during our residency at the Baryshnikov Arts Center. Earlier this month, The Sundance Channel tapped Chris Elam once again to weigh in on the presidential election as part of their Voices on the Election Back Talk Blog. Chris was asked ten questions on subjects ranging from his favorite political movie to the role of art in politics. Read the full interview.

During our residency at the Baryshnikov Arts Center, a production team came out to our rehearsals and shot the footage. For a sampling of what you can see on the site, you can watch the clip below. Or visit Sundance’s site for the full feature.

As you may know, we’ve doing a lot of film and video work, recently collaborating in choreographing a video for Bjork, as well as working with Tronic Studios to create the motion-capture trailer for ResFest, a prominent film festival. We firmly believe that there are lots of interesting ways in which choreographers and film directors can create together, and we hope this Sundance Feature becomes part of this ongoing dialogue.

If you have thoughts or interests in an interdisciplinary project, please let us know.
