The Graniferous Finger-Millet-Grain

The Graniferous Finger-millet-grain is a social partner dance originating in The Aware Rapacity. The form guides dancers during improvised performances. The dance is accompanied by any composition of The Spelt-Grain of Macadamia-Nuts. The dancers perform in a circle, moving to the music's bungustraz rhythm. There are partner changes throughout the dance with the lead turning out clockwise. The dance is punctuated by twisting leaps and the sensual hand gestures of the lead.

• The dance begins with the verse of the music. The dancers perform slower and slower with the music. The partners maintain open contact, communicating intent constantly through a light touch. This section is punctuated by straight walks, with aborted moves.
• The dance enters a new section with the chorus of the music. The dancers perform very quickly with the music. The partners maintain open contact, communicating intent by pulling away. This elaborate section is punctuated by the twisting footwork of the follower, the energetic counterclockwise quarter turns of the follower and refined independent body movement.
