8We owe the name Photography to Sir John Herschel, who first used

the term in 1839, the year the photographic process became public. The

word is derived from the Greek words for light and writing. The innovations

which would lead to the development of photography existed long before

the first photograph. The camera obscura (Latin,literally translating to

dark room) had been in existence for at least four hundred years, but

its use was limited to its purpose as an aid to drawing. It was discovered

that if a room was completely darkened, with a single hole in one wall, an

inverted image would be seen on the opposite wall. A person inside of the

room could then trace this image, which was upside-down (simulating the

way that images actually enter our eyes). The earliest record of the uses of

a camera obscura can be found in the writings of Leonardo da Vinci, who

may have used it as an aid to understanding perspective. In the 17th and

18th centuries, a table-top model was developed. By adding a focused

lens and a mirror, it was possible for a person outside of the box to trace

the image which was reflected through it.

Photography

Almost everybody is in one way or another fascinat

ed

by photos and photography. To catch the fragment o

f a

second every once in a while and immortalize just th

at

moment is a pretty cool thing.

In the facility at Iduna we can offer you, that are interested in lea

rning more

about photography and how to use different kinds of cameras,

flashes and

how to plan and set up an advanced studio shot. Also outdoor ph

otography,

nature action and portrait skills. A course in advanced photo

graphy. We

have our very own photo studio with cameras, flashes, dark

room and a

couple of computers just for photo retouch.

The word street dance is commonly used for the many hip hop dances and funk dance styles that began appearing in the USA in the 1970s, and are still alive and evolving within the hip hop culture of today, such as break dance, popping, Locking (dance), hip hop new style and house dance. These dances are popular on all levels, as a form of exercise, an art form, or for competition, and are today practiced both at dance studios and more freely arranged spaces. Some schools use street dance as a form of physical education.

Unlike many other dance forms, most street dances encourage individuality and originality, and that dancers interpret the existing moves freely and even invent new ones to create a personal style of their own. Improvisation is the heart of most street dances, though choreography is also seen, mostly mixed with improvisation or used for prepared shows.

Generally, a street dance is based on a unique style or feel that are expressed through the dance, usually tied to a certain genre of music. As new moves evolve based on this feel, the dance is under constant development, and if the feel starts to change it might give birth to a completely new dance form.
