Butoh is an experimental form of japanese dance which is an amalgam of traditional japanese dance, classical european forms, and freestyle. i would love to see a performance, its incredible, and the images, even just stills are so beautiful. i was turned onto it because antony's recent album art features Kazuo ohno, a legendary butoh dancer. my ideal scenario right now is to hole up in a big pitch-dark room with a projector and ball up on a couch and watch hours of butoh films and eat cucumbers and drink iced tea.
