GooSayTen Butoh videos

Itto Morita and Mika Takeuchi

[Japanese version]
What is essence of Butoh? What are cocepts or artistic ideas of each Butoh piece? What are those different dances/movements and developments in each Butoh stage? Video materials are at most GooSayTen's past records or our own personal memoranda, but they surely give us clues to grasp what our mind/body needs in order to find out our destinies or destinations in our journey of Butoh.
(Itto Morita, in the 20th year of Butoh dance life. Jan.1,2008)
