Week of May 11-15.
This week’s musical activity is Mirroring. Mirroring basically requires two people, one taking the role of a mover and the other person is the mirror. The mover must move slowly while the mirroring person copies off the mover’s movement. If the mover does not move slowly, the mirroring person would have a hard time following it. The Mirroring.mp4 is shorter than the the YouTube video below and it shows a stick man being the mover. Nonetheless, move slowly to get to the stick man’s position. Try mirroring with a family member. Have another person watch and figure out who is being the mover and the mirror. If the mover moves too quickly, the mirror would not be able to move in time, and the observer will easily figure out who is who. The music is set to Johann Sebastian Bach’s Air on a G String.
If you could send me a picture of your mirroring movement to mark.yang@burnabyschools.ca, I will put a sticker on your face for privacy share it here. Feel free to click Comments to make some comments.
