...that's only an appetizer for what dance-goers in Spain, Slovenia and France can expect later this year, when ADT presents its latest and most maximalist work thus far. In the wake of a season at the Sydney Festival, Devolution pushes Stewart's high-voltage style to bursting point, pitting man against machine, muscle against metal. For this, the Adelaide-based choreographer has worked with Montreal "roboticist" Louis-Philippe Demers to engineer a fleet of moving machines that interact with ADT's 10 dancers on stage.

...Israel and Egypt. When communism collapsed, Yugoslavia was expected to be the first East European country to join the European Community. But instead of E.U. membership we got Slobodan Milosevic, who ensnared many of my Serbian compatriots with his virulent nationalism, while other Balkan countries became equally nationalistic.

...include at least two Canadians and three Americans with dual citizenship, but they still didn't qualify for the Games. Austrian skier Josef Strobl had no chance to penetrate his country's talent-deep ski team. So Strobl, who had a Slovenian great-grandfather, tried for a spot on Slovenia's team - but didn't make that, either. The Olympic dream fuels the nation-hopping.
