Sometimes, when I'm sad, I like to look at pictures of people dancing at Anna Oxygen's live shows. For those of you unfamiliar, Anna Oxygen is an electronic audio/visual artist who is known for inventing "psychedelic aerobics," and for leading her audiences in synchronized exercise routines while she performs in front of giant video screens.
Seriously. I have an entire folder on my computer dedicated specifically to photos of Anna Oxygen fans getting their jazzercise on. Basically, every single one is pure joy personified. Here are some of my favorite examples (none of these were taken by me, sadly):
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(there's a snippet of video from her website too, in case you want more action)
In addition to her performance art group Cloud Eye Control, it seems like she's been doing some pretty wonderful stuff translating old folk music from the acoustic to the electronic, as well as the project "Conversations That Never Happened" which "explores relationships and intimacy developed during the ritual of eating." Love? So, so much love.
