The Nectarous Horned-Melon
The Nectarous Horned-melon is a social group dance originating in The Faded Petticoat. The form guides dancers during improvised performances. The dance is accompanied by The Wholegrain Birdseed. The dancers perform in a single line turning clockwise, moving quickly to the music's nebulursed rhythm. This dance is a refined artform, with four special positions to be mastered. The intense dance is punctuated by body level changes.
- The dance begins with the theme of the music. This section is debauched and jerking.
- The dance enters a new section with the exposition of the theme of the music. This flamboyant section is punctuated by aggressive facial expressions, refined independent body movement mirrored by group members and low spins.
- The dance enters a new section with the recapitulation of the theme of the music. This section is punctuated by raised left arms and twisting leaps.
- The sek is one of the fundamental dance positions. There should be an aggressive facial expression with an elaborate raised right arm, a vivacious right leg lift and a low body level.
- The ibmas is one of the fundamental dance positions. There should be a sharp-edged hand gesture with a forward bend.
- The ster is one of the fundamental dance positions. There should be a straight-lined raised left arm with a low body level, an aggressive facial expression and a sharp-edged leftward bend.
