Learn about artificial intelligence (AI) concepts to create your own virtual dance party showcasing today's top artists. With dozens of songs to choose from, reach every student no matter their music taste. It's time to strut your stuff!
In Dance Party: AI Edition, three selected emojis are used to generate an output effect using AI. An output effect consists of values for background effect, background color palette, and foreground effect.
Each emoji and each output value has a descriptive phrase associated with it. By comparing the similarity of an input emoji's phrase with an output value's phrase, we are able to use AI to recommend the best match.
To compute the similarity, each phrase is assigned an embedding. An embedding is a list of numbers that captures the meaning of a phrase, and the embeddings used in Dance Party: AI Edition are about 1,500 numbers long. Similarity is measured by the "distance" between the phrases' embeddings. In Dance Party: AI Edition, we use embeddings generated by the Amazon Bedrock Titan model and calculate similarity by computing the cosine distance between embeddings.
All the Fish by Caspar Babypants on I Found You
I like this song because each animal swims a different way and we pretend to be each one. We also make the bubbles pop over our heads, though I could definitely see using this song with a bubble wand or bubble gun.
The Freeze by Greg and Steve on Kids in Motion
There are lots of freeze-type songs out there but this is the one I like the best. A huge shout out to Angie for exposing me to Greg and Steve!
Free Dance:
After we have sufficiently shaked, I play a series of free dance songs. People are free to take a break if they need to or grab one of the music themed books on display. I keep dancing with the kids who are still full of energy. Here are some of my go-to songs:
Hi! We're Dana and Lindsey, two children's librarians ready to take on storytime. Jbrary is a library of storytime resources for those of us working with children. Join us for songs, rhymes, fingerplays, and more!

Hi,
Thank you for your reply. I have created my class and they all have a picture assigned and the password. Am I supposed to do something more? Does this mean they now have an account they can save their dances on? Where do they save their dances?

**NOTE: The originator of this quote, Vernā Myers, and I have had a couple of great back-and-forths about this idea. I deeply respect her work and words, and in no way is this an attack on her. Rather, it's a reflection of the evolution of DEI work, of continuing to set the bar higher, and of casting vision farther. The original quote is hers, as is much of the foundation of the work I stand on.
To this end, the statement is helpful. It articulates (though somewhat abstractly) that diversity is about representation, and inclusion is about involvement. Those are really different things, and it's important to help people understand that.
At the risk of reading too deeply into something not built to be analyzed, though, I have a problem with this phrase. Or, perhaps, more precisely, I believe that diversity and inclusion practitioners should stop using this phrase as a summary-statement or end-game phrase of D&I work.
The issue is that, at its heart, this is an oversimplification of complex ideas, and doesn't authentically represent what inclusion really could/can be. Both of these statements, the "diversity" and the "inclusion" one, are passive constructions. That is, there is an implication of someone else (not referenced directly in the statement) doing the inviting, and doing the asking.
To put it into corporate terms, this phrase only really indicates that organizational diversity and inclusion is, at its best, those with leadership influence deigning to include others in their circles for brief moments, usually in celebrative ways rather than strategic ones.
Maybe I'm overly leaning into power structure dynamics, but when one asks another to dance, generally that's an ask coming from a position of relational power (in this case the comfort to believe that he/she won't be rejected), and unfolds accordingly, with the "asker" leading the dance. The one being asked remains a responder, both in the dance, and after.
It seems to me that espousing this idea that inclusion means being asked to dance is not only overly simplistic, it's dangerous. It allows that there is, and will be, a specific group that controls the "pace" and "space" of the dance floor.
What seems to me to be a better vision for this work is to create a sense where marginalized or underrepresented peoples are no longer dependent on an offer of brief "inclusion," but where they are equally able to be askers. That's a big shift, and I say this knowing it represents lots of organizational culture training, and time enough to bring more underrepresented peoples into leadership positions. It's also dependent on educational systems and inequities, the geographies of poverty and opportunity, traditional hiring practices, etc, etc.
But that's what we're shooting for, right? Full inclusion? Don't we desire a corporate culture that creates space for, and rewards, strategic practices, policies, and behaviors that allow all people not only to bring their fullest sense of self to work each day, but to lead out with their very best contributions toward that company's mission, vision and goals? Research indicates the closer we get to this ideal the better (also read, more profitable) our companies become. And, I believe, the better our companies become, the better our communities become.
Although not explicitly religious, ecstatic dance is designed so that participants achieve a spiritual boost by getting down in an environment designed to be free of controlled substances and unwanted advances. In short, it is purely about the dancing.
A midtown tradition since 2014, Dance Party returns to Bryant Park this summer!

Each of the six free programs of dance instruction, live music, and social dance are open to all to attend with no reservations or waiting list. Just walk up and join the party!

The Broadway Rave has been touring the United States and is making a stop in DC on April 8 at the Howard Theatre. I had a chance to connect with Broadway Rave cofounder Ethan Maccoby and send him some questions:
Ethan Maccoby: Alex, my co-founder, and I love musical theater. We grew up together and have been best friends since we were about 2 years old. Throughout middle school and high school, we were in all the school musicals, and have always had a love for Broadway and the musical theater scene.
We love to party and go out but quickly realized that there are limited options in terms of going out to a club or bar and partying to show tunes. Therefore, Broadway Rave was started. A safe place where people from all backgrounds can come together, dress up, dance, and sing along (even get on stage!) and party to all their favorite Broadway and musical theater hits.
Booth/table seating is ONLY available for reservation with the purchase of the three day ticket for the 2024 event. Seating is EXTREMELY limited as our booths are original and were designed to be a place to sit and rest between dances versus a place to sit and watch a show.
Minimum ticket purchase requirements are required to maximize our capacity for the shows. A minimum purchase of 4 tickets is required to reserve a booth (small or large) and a purchase of 10 tickets is required to reserve a large table on the dance floor.
