I love it too of course. You can find more of his Danceruns online at his
site, I think it's foofwa.com - they became more elaborate and often used
harlequin themes - dancing through cities, one in which he went into the
river, and so forth. Some of it was covered on tv, and at times he had
large crowds dancing with him for part of it, rather like William Kemp,
who in 1600 danced the Morris from London to Norwich and wrote about it in
"Kemps Nine Daies Wonder. Performed in a Daunnce from London to Norwich."
The world is both weirdly strange and strangely weird!

I remember watching this in disbelief all those years ago. Wonderful,
crazy stuff! Especially when he starts jumping into the air. And I love
the way the camera keeps swooping round the track after he's slowed to a
walk.

Roughly converted into lower ascii.
This was one of the earliest Dance Runs by Foofwa;
I love the focus, intensity, dance, and my music
works well, I think. I watch this from time to time,
beautiful and oddly calming, and all my thanks and
more to Foofwa -
