A co-worker of mine went to China this summer, and came away with some amazing videos and pictures.

None of them, in my opinion, top this one.

This is the Dance of Masks from the Loashe Teahouse in Beijing. It's filmed on a personal videocam, so it's not perfect quality (and there's a twenty second spot near the middle that's way too dark to see), but this performance is very nifty.

This is absolutely lovely! Would you mind very much if I posted this over on my journal? I don't want to borrow it without permission.

I watched this movie (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0767847377/sr=8-1/qid=1154677374/ref=pd_bbs_1/104-2484278-6072746?ie=UTF8) a while back, which featured that art. The movie was interesting enough, but the masks intrigued me. Thanks for sharing!

Nifty! What I'd love to know is how the masks change....
