By Ernst Haas Moment Unsatisfactory Express Dynamic Motion

Thus a running horse has not four legs, but twenty, and their movements are triangular. By Giacomo Balla Things Move Run Changing Rapidly

Whether I'm doing a routine where I want to move people, or if I want to feel moved myself, I definitely tap into those moments where it's not just dancing or movement.
