One Minute Wander (Film Short: 00:60)

Original Performance on August 1, 2000

2000 – Following an interview regarding a dance work-in-progress, Utah * Spirit Place * Spirit Planet * Tukuhnikivatz, Maida Withers was asked by filmmaker Linda Lewett to extend the interview into a “nature” performance by the creek near Maida’s home in Arlington, Virginia where the interview took place.  The interview was for the Dance Place 20th Anniversary Celebration promotional video.  This video short is part of the very long period begun in the 1980s of Maida’s participation in the global movement to develop environment consciousness.  Spontaneous performances are very important projects….revealing Withers love and passion for dance anywhere at anytime.

Linda toured with Maida to Russia on two occasions to document performances and residencies in Russia. Linda was the producer of a dance show, an ongoing series on dance on Fairfax Cable during the early stages of Maida’s work.  Linda is an amazing filmmaker and artist.  Linda was instrumental in documenting many of the early and important projects of Maida Withers Dance Construction Company and has continued her collaboration with Maida through DIGG and other projects through 2025.
