‘1000 People of Dance’ video captures humanity at its best

sudshr47 January 16, 2019

You ever watch something that makes you believe that maybe, just maybe, humanity isn’t a giant dumpster fire of awfulness?

Inspired by those videos where people take pictures of themselves every day for a year, YouTuber Matt Bray created his own joyful series focused on dancing.

The project started with Bray dancing — by himself over 100 days in 2014, then in 100 different places in 2015, then with 100 different people in 2016. For his latest, Bray spent a year and a half traveling around the globe to a total of 15 different countries to create “1000 People of Dance.”

sudshr47 January 10, 2019

We’ve all been there — a missed flight or delay leads to hours of mind-numbing boredom in the terminal — unless overpriced food and stale air is your idea of a good time.

But Twitter user @katiemgould showed that with just a phone and some dancing feet, any flight delay can turn into a par-tay.

After missing her flight and getting stuck in an Atlanta airport for 4 hours, she decided to kick up her shoes to the iconic hit, “You Make My Dreams,” by Hall & Oates.

She even included her cat, Bowie, in the hilarious shuffle. According to Twitter, he is her “favorite travel buddy” and a “precious baby angel boy”. Read more…

Culture Dance Marching Band Web Culture

Ohio State’s marching band re-created the Backpack Kid to perfection

sudshr47 October 13, 2018

The Ohio State Marching band showed off its precision and knowledge of slightly nerdy viral dance moves on Saturday.

During the Ohio State band’s halftime show, the marching musicians got in formation to reenact the dance of …. The Backpack Kid.

You know, the Backpack Kid! Also known as The Floss, also known as the dance move every annoying kid now does at wedding receptions to become the center of attention.

Honestly, the marching band’s version is pretty uncanny, and instantly recognizable.

Teenager and now YouTube-famous dancer Russell Horning is credited with creating the move. The Floss got re-dubbed the Backpack Kid when Katy Perry brought him on stage during her Saturday Night Live performance in May, and he upstaged everyone while doing his rubber band-limbed moves, while — you guessed it — wearing a backpack.
