In August 1977 NASA sent into outer space a phonographic recording, the “Golden Record,” containing sounds and images selected to portray the diversity of life and culture on Earth with hopes of some day communicating to intelligent life. Sanspointe dance artists Lynn Andrews and Rhea Speights choreographed a dance response to this cultural capsule, a dance which ranges from satirical to earnest and makes physical humanity's attempt to project ourselves beyond our own time span.
