About Us, Creative Work, El Anatsui

Your ticket inside our world

Welcome to “Inside Code f.a.d. Company” – our new blog to keep you (our fans) in the loop with all of Code f.a.d.’s activities. We will be posting (at least once a week) to update on our current choreography and film projects and to give you more insight into our dancers and other artists that make the company who we are. Feel free to post comments and ask us questions. What would YOU like to know about Code f.a.d.? Ask and we’ll be happy to tell you about it!

Up first, check back in just a couple days (or follow us with the links to the right) for more info on our new project, a dance inspired by the artwork of El Anatsui. Currently on exhibition at the NC Museum of Art is “When I Last Wrote to You About Africa – the artwork of El Anatsui.” Code f.a.d. is creating a new work dealing with some of the same themes present in the exhibition – community and the use of recycled objects. So… we are collecting lots and lots of used wine corks for reuse in our performance! This is just the very start of our collection:

Tomorrow is our first rehearsal for the new dance material, so we will update more on our progress after rehearsal. There is much still to process – we are writing text, listening to various types of music, and starting to think about costuming. And, stay tuned to read about how Code f.a.d. is expanding for this particular show – growing our community!

Thanks for reading so far, and hope to find you checking in again.

-Autumn
(Code f.a.d. Artistic Director)
