Galaxy Formation | Circulate

A Galaxy FORMATION consists of a Box inside of a Diamond. This is the opposite of an Hourglass FORMATION which consists of a Diamond inside of a Box.

Galaxy Circulate [C1]: From a Galaxy. The Circulate path of a Galaxy consists of 8 spots. Move up to the next position in the Galaxy (Box dancers move forward into the next outside Diamond position, as Diamond dancers move forward into the next Center position). Your new facing direction is determined by the dancer currently occupying the spot to which you will move. You must either face the same direction as that dancer (i.e., you are following his or her back), or 180° in the opposite direction (facing Galaxy Circulate). This means that sometimes your facing direction will change 90° and sometimes your facing direction will not change at all. From a normal R-H or L-H Galaxy, the traffic pattern of Galaxy Circulate results in all dancers moving in either a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction, respectively. If no dancers come to the same spot, then Galaxy Circulate ends in a Galaxy.


Ignore CONCEPT

There are two different uses of the Ignore CONCEPT.

In both cases the ignored dancers do not move.


Interlocked Diamond Formation

An Interlocked Diamond FORMATION consists of the same footprints as normal Twin Diamonds or Point-to-Point Diamonds. The only difference is that each Centermost dancer is working with the 3 dancers in the far Diamond.


Interrupt CONCEPT

  1. Do the first given call up to a specified part of its definition;
  2. do the second given call;
  3. do the remaining portions of the first given call.

Jaywalk

From applicable 2-(or more) dancer formations.

All (or designated dancers) do a diagonal Pass Thru, to end in the other dancer's starting position and face opposite to the other dancer's original facing direction.


Linear Action

Centers Hinge & Box Circulate 1 & 1/2 as Outsides Hinge & Trade; those who meet (Center 4) Cast Off 3/4 as the Others move up (as in Chain Reaction).

Ends in Parallel Waves, Parallel 3 & 1 Lines, or a Parallelogram (if outside dancers end on the same spot).


Little

From a 3/4 Tag or other applicable formations.

Outsides 1/4 Right & Counter Rotate 1/4 as Centers Step & Fold.

A R-H 3/4 Tag ends in Parallel R-H Waves, a L-H 3/4 Tag ends in Parallel R-H Two-Faced Lines.


Magic Column Concept

A Magic Column typically consists of Parallel Columns in which the Center dancers are holding the opposite hands from the Outside dancers (i.e., the Outsides are holding R-H as the Centers are holding L-H, or vice-versa).

 
L-H Magic Columns R-H Magic Columns

Magic Column Circulate [C1]: From applicable Generalized Columns. In-Facing Ends and Out-Facing Centers Crossover Circulate as Others Circulate. An alternative way of thinking of this is that you do a Crossover Circulate if and only if your next Circulate would take you from an End to a Center or vice-versa. Otherwise do a normal Circulate. From normal Magic Columns, the traffic pattern has the Out-Facing Center dancer moving first (in front of the In-Facing End dancer who must wait). This is important in case the caller calls a Magic Column 1/2 Circulate, since sometimes this will cause you to pass Right-shoulders and sometimes Left-shoulders.


Make Magic

From Generalized Columns of 4 (usually a 1/4 Box or Magic Columns) or other applicable formations.

Any Out-Facing Centers who are facing an Outside dancer do a Pass Thru with that dancer as any In-Facing Centers diagonally Pull By (with each other) using outside hands.


"O" Formation

An "O" consists of dancers occupying the following spots in a 4 x 4 matrix:

"O" FORMATION

 
 
From here... imagine you are here.

An "O" is considered to be Distorted Columns, as if the Centers slid apart from normal Columns.


Pass The Axle

From Eight Chain Thru, Parallel R-H Waves, or other applicable formations.

  1. Pass Thru;
  2. Centers Pass Thru as Ends Cross Cast Back;
  3. all Trade;
  4. Centers Trade.

Ends in Facing Lines. Pass The Axle is a 4-part call.


Percolate

From Parallel Waves, applicable Parallel Lines, Eight Chain Thru, 2 x 4 T-Bones, or other applicable formations.

  1. Circulate;
  2. 1/2 Circulate;
  3. Those in the Center Line do a Hinge & Cross as the Others Any Hand Turn Thru.

Usually ends in Back-to-Back Lines or T-Bones (with everyone facing out).


Phantom Concept

The idea for the Phantom CONCEPT is to overlap two sets of Parallel Columns | Lines | Waves at 90° to each other, filling in the blank spots with "ghost dancers."

Do the given call working with imaginary dancers (i.e., Phantoms). Assume that the Phantoms are in whatever position, have whatever facing direction, and are of whatever sex is necessary in order to execute the given call. The call is then danced with both the dancers and the Phantoms participating. Keep track of the Phantoms that you are working with and reserve space for them at the completion of the call.


Plenty

From a Generalized 3/4 Tag (usually a R-H 3/4 Tag) or other applicable formations.

  1. Little (Outsides 1/4 Right & Counter Rotate 1/4 as Centers Step & Fold);
  2. Split Circulate twice;
  3. Outsides Counter Rotate 1/4 and Roll as the Center four Concentric 1/2 Zoom.

Usually ends in a 1/4 Tag.


Prefer CONCEPT

The Prefer CONCEPT does not have a clear-cut definition and in most cases is call-dependent.

In general, the 'Preferred' dancers do the first part of the call, the given part of the call, or the most obvious or active part of the call. The caller will usually say 'Prefer the anyone: anything' or 'anyone is Preferred: anything.' The caller may also indicate which part of the given call the Preferred dancers are to do.

Designated dancers move one position forward.

Press Back [C1V]:

Ramble

From a 3/4 Tag or other applicable formations.

Outsides Cast Back (Peel Off) as Centers Fold to face each other (danced as a Single Wheel); all Slide Thru.

A 3/4 Tag ends in general Columns. Ramble is a 2-part call.


Regroup

From Parallel Lines or other applicable formations.

Centers Trade & Roll as Outsides 1/4 Out, Trade & Veer Out (Press Out).

Parallel Lines end in Facing Lines.


Relay The Shadow

From a Tidal Wave, Facing Lines, or other applicable formations.

Rotate

Rotates (Rotate, Reverse Rotate, Single Rotate, Reverse Single Rotate) は, コールを始める formation に従って, 異なる challenge list にあります.

C1 では,
Rotates は, 一般的な squared set, または, 似た formation (例えば, Column の Ends だけ) からのみコールされます.
C2 では,
Rotates は, 平行な Lines または 2 x 2 (例えば, In Your Block Single Rotate 1/4) からもコールされます.
C3B では,
Rotates は, Columns からもコールされます.

Rotates を踊るための方法:
  1. 自分の setup の中心点を確認します.

    自分の setup の中心点とは, 以下の場合を除き, square の真ん中 (よく "flagpole center (flagpole: 旗ざお)" と言われます) です:

    1. もし, 2 x 4 formation にいて Lines であれば, 中心点は each Box の Center (すなわち, Split で動きます) です. もし, 2 x 4 の T-Bone なら, Line の人が Split で動くのに対して, Column の人の中心点は flagpole center (squared set の中心) です.
    2. もし, Rotate の前に Split の言葉があれば, formation を 2 つの等しい subformation に分けます. 中心点は subformation の Center です. 2 x 4 から, Split は setup を 2 つの 2 x 2 へ分けることを意味し, 2 つの 1 x 4 ではありません.
    3. もし, Rotate の前に, 動きを行う formation の名前があれば, 中心点はその formation の Center です. 例えば, Columns からの 'Each Column Single Rotate 1/4' を考えてみましょう. この場合, 中心点は 1 x 4 setup の Center です.
  2. 下記のルールに従って, 確認した中心点の方へ 1/4 向きを変えます:

    RotateAs Couples 1/4 To Promenade
    Reverse RotateAs Couples 1/4 To Reverse Promenade
    Single Rotate Individually 1/4 To Promenade
    Reverse Single Rotate Individually 1/4 To Reverse Promenade

    1/4 To Promenade
    肩が自分の formation の Center へ向くように 1/4 その場で回ります.
    1/4 To Reverse Promenade
    肩が自分の formation の Center へ向くように 1/4 その場で回ります.
  3. 中心点の回りで Counter Rotate を与えられた fraction だけ行います.

    Squared Set から, アクティブのダンサーは set の外側を回るように動きます. アクティブでない人は set の Center へ動かねばなりません.

Stretch Concept

From applicable 8-dancer formations.

Do the given 4-dancer call with the resulting Centers ending in the far Center positions. The given call must be a call that can be done with four dancers.

To get to the proper ending position, it is always possible to do the call in each group of 4, and then those who end as the centermost 4 dancers do a 'Substitute' with each other, moving away from the dancers with whom they have done the call.

T-Bone is a name given to any (usually rectangular) setup in which at least one dancer's facing direction is 90 degrees off relative to another dancers' facing direction. The word 'T-Bone' is typically not said unless the caller wishes to emphasize that the dancers should pay attention.

When doing calls from T-Bone formations, do your part of the given call. Assume that dancers T-Boned to you are facing in whatever direction is necessary for you to do your part of the call. Usually, you will not interact much with those who are T-Boned to you, and the call may feel quite different than when done from a normal setup.


Tally-Ho
