Though they look digitally created, we'll see how his \"resemblage\" technique is entirely rooted in the physical world. Across the country to LA, we meet the LA City Municipal Dance Squad, whose inspired and irreverent half-time performances explore women's physicality, self-expression, and push the envelope of what it means to be a dancer. Lastly, we face mortality with Jae Rhim Lee's infinity burial suits which use mushrooms to speed up the decomposition process. Although Lee confronts the concept of death head-on in this work, we discover how the suit is actually a statement about the a celebration of life. Infinity Suit Segment: Performer names (actors): Alexis Convento Mariah Martens Suzie Rzecznik SORA Quartet: Allison Dubinski, violin Gabryel Smith, violin Emily Bookwalter, viola Ken Hashimoto, cello SORA Quartet performed excerpts from John Cage's String Quartet in 4 parts, with permission from the John Cage Trust.
