Stretching seconds into minutes in ‘Slow Dancing,’ on the Widener Library facade Dance moves one step at a time - Arts

Using a camera that shoots 1,000 frames per second, installation artist David Michalek filmed five-second dance sequences by a remarkable roster of performers and stretched them out to 10 minutes. Kicking off the annual Harvard Arts First Festival, “Slow Dancing” will be projected on three screens spread across the facade of Widener Library for the next 10 nights.
