Robert, it was awesome to see your comment linking popping and clown. I'm a clown, and your videos are a huge inspiration! Could I ask you to elaborate on what you mean by the "rules to help create this feeling"? Thanks.

[llmrfantasticll]

@drflummox the rules of certain styles popping help create the feeling of 'realness' for miming. As does miming for popping.

[llmrfantasticll]

@drflummox the rules & techniques of popping can help create the feeling of 'real-ness' or 'surreal-ness' for miming. So adding a popping technique to a miming number to some music, creates this environment that not many people can pull off.

wtf was that creature at the end?!?!

this is amazing Robert! Keep it going!

wanted to ask you, when you dance and do your various moves, you give it a popping feel, so when someone watches, it's like watching you in bits and peices, i've recently started popping and i'm having problem with my hits. Despite them being hard, i don't know wheather to just contract all my muscles while popping or actually pop my chest out and hit hard .

any suggestions?

[drflummox]

Thanks for responding...so you mean rules like fixed point...or maybe stuff more particular to popping than mime, like "pop on the clack"? Yeah, it's funny how you have to get that "realness" before you can take the audience into the "surreal". You've probably seen Robert Shields's stuff - your work is kind of like his, funny and uncanny. Just not as narrative - out on a weird rhythmic limb.
