As I've always said, the web dances are sketches of ideas. They are also
unfunded (well, funded by my personal earnings designing web sites for
other people). I've never (yet) applied for funding for any web dances,
having much more important (to me) live choreography projects to raise
funding for. Maybe one day... If I ever do apply for funding for a web
dance, it will be for something much richer, more engaging, and evolved a
whole lot further than these sketches. At the moment I'm trying things
out. Some work and some don't. And some are more readily accepted as
dance than others.
