An exercising python, pil and ffmpeg to sort images by brightness ((make grayscale, convert to 1x1px image, value the grayscaleness of this pixel)). In this way, by altering the rhythm and even the connotation of the original movie - a new composition of body movement is created.

Brightness: the luminance of a body that an observer uses to determine the comparative luminance of another body. (from www.thefreedictionary.com/brightness)
Brightness as the structural element of the new composition. Brightness as the common unit, linking the physical and digital performance. Transporting the visual effects of the illumination on the object and the object within a scene, towards the screen color values.
The original video:
The re-arrangement of the image sequence, by brightness, consequently creates a new movement sequence:
In choreography's tradition, the traces of a performance, have fed the imagination, and given rise to new versions of future performances.
"Choreography's manifold incarnations are a perfect ecology of idea-logics; they do not insist on a single path to form-of-thought and persist in the hope of being without enduring." by William Forsythe
