SYNOPSIS
In 1978, the author witnessed a bird dance masquerade in the town of Dogoduman. He was so affected by this performance that its artistic power has never left him. Here, he considers the components of the performance, its pace, the performers, and what the entire experience means for understandings of Bamana and West African aesthetics and culture.
