05ONGOING PROJECTSCHOREOGRAPH.NET – WWW.CHOREOGRAPH.NETThe web’s leading forum on choreography, Choreograph.net is steadily growing into an important resource andeducational tool for upcoming and established choreographers. The Choreograph.net forum is dedicated toeverything that spans or encircles contemporary choreography and culture and attempts to considerchoreography in the broadest sense. In 2004 Daghdha Dance Company asked three upcoming choreographers,Rebecca Walter (Ireland), Chase Granoff (USA) and Fearghus O’Conchúir (Ireland), to keep onlinejournals/metalogues of their work. The metalogues are available on Choreograph.net and provide an interestingchronicle of the choreographers’ work, their inspirations and their theories, these journals are becoming animportant reference for other choreographers around the world.IRIS – WWW.YOUCOULD.NETCreated by Davide Terlingo and Michael Klien of Daghdha Dance Company for Cork 2005: European Capital ofCulture (www.cork2005.ie), Iris is an inspired and canny exploration of the urban crowd in action. Iris sees thefree distribution of thousands of steel rings, specially designed by Polish designer Rafal Kosakowski, throughoutthe city of Cork during the opening celebrations of Cork 2005 and throughout the year. The Iris rings are amemento of Cork 2005 and an immediate identifiable symbol of involvement in Cork’s year as European Capitalof Culture. Each ring comes with an identical set of five instructions inviting the wearer of a ring to show aphysical or mental reaction whenever he or she meets someone wearing the same ring (i.e. ‘steal a gaze’, ‘senda telepathic message’, ‘swap rings’). Ring wearers are encouraged to invent their own responses and recordthese on the Iris website (www.youcould.net).Iris is funded by Cork 2005: European Capital of Culture and sponsored by Absolute Events.
