We did it! The Swedish Dance History 09 Audio is HERE
During 24 hours did the flat of the editorial team transform into a grande recording device from which narratives and voices merged together into a symbiosis of a collective swarm. Vine, chilli and chocolate bars kept the dance doers awake until early dawn when 9 am the last page was read.
Here a first round:

The Time Is Growing - The Swedish Dance History is putting on weight
The Devil has occupied the body of David Dorfman, quite a look a like.
The Swedish Dance History is growing. The 1000 pages publication is pregnant due the 8th month. We have just made it to 14 hours. Fuck me, this is two days working days of listening to silly choreographers and dancers trying to use their brains. Yes, this is evidence to the assumption that dancers and choreographers is something more than a body. Make your own mind up and listen to some of the most poetic dope ever published on internet.
In the mean time lotion your ears with Rasmus Ölme's reading of the last page of The Swedish Dance History 2009.

The End Is Near - The Mother Fuckin' Armageddon
The Swedish Dance History did it again, the team brought on themselves an impossible task.
"-Dude, there is no way in hell that you can record and organize a 1000 pages of text in that short a time."
Well, fuck if we give up and shitgoddamn if we are stopping halfway. A new section of TSDH09 has been recorded on double locations, team Impulstanz is working it between workshops, shows and making out and the small but aggressive team in PAF has made progress to the extent where the endeavor will be classified as one of the worlds seven wonders. So far you can listen to six and a half hours of dance makers and doers reading from the bible of contemporary choreography and here comes and other chunk.
Mind you, The Swedish Dance History is very bad in one thing: to give up. It's simply not part of our vocabulary.
And hey tomorrow we will be there again with our recording devices, so hook up and make your contribution.

The Swedish Dance History Audio Even More Pages
The Swedish Dance History team Vienna needed some up tempo assistance to be able to cover some few hundred pages, so Kr66t Juurak kicked in and started to record the entire flock of artistic kids at PAF. Here some of the most upcoming evil dance and performance artists in the world started reading and do they do it good. No they are doing their job, and that they do G O O D.
Listen to the voices of a new paradigm, and check out Ulrika Berg ready to rock with a cheese grinder.

The Second Day of Amazing Recordings
We are back, and you have no idea how bad it is. We are speeding up - washing it down with a gin and juice - and are about to hit the 500 pages - halfway to the finishing line - well almost the old work horse of a book is 1037 pages.
Here we go - are you aware about the fact that the new silver bible is coming out in a week. Yes, it can be in your hand within seven days. Disco.
But first some magic performances of readings from TSDH 2009.

The Swedish Dance History Goes Audio
After a ruthless ten days of activity the Swedish Dance History episode #2 - the 2010 version - has been rushed away to our specially designed printing house in Estonia where no less than 3000 copies will be pulled together by some magical machines we can't even spell the name of. With brilliant assistance by CAPERO the books will be on it's way back to Vienna within a week. On 13 August a grand release party will be celebrated in collaboration with Impulstanz. The aim is to get no less than 1500 of those marvellous books out into the world within a week. And we will succeed.
However, are we about to take it easy for almost two week? We don't think so. Nope, in the mean time, as the 2009 version of the publication is out of stock, we will attempt to make an audio version to be spread as MP3 audiofiles free to download on this web location (later on also available as hard copy, but that's another story, although if your dad or somebody else runs a DVD printing factory, do give us a good price).
A 1000 pages will thus be turned into a 1000 voices, or at least a 1000 pages read be us who do and create dance. The members of the team remaining in Vienna (other in PAF) will record the book from the beginning to the end. It's for you and me, but we also thought it'll be nice with a TSDH for the blind and/or illiterate. So Monday 2 August we start recording. You will find a mobile recording team in different location in the festival, putting a microphone gently in your face and ask you to contribute with your voice. Just think about how nice it will be for you mother listening to your voice as you tour the world, or why not the boyfriends you have forgotten during long nights at he lounge. In any case it is a contribution to an amazing resource for dance historians.
So get ready to battle with The Swedish Dance History Goes Audio and remember there is only gonne be one of them ever. This is your chance to become eternal once again.
Just click and download your contribution all of them will be available here.
