Michael Hollinger

Michael Hollinger (born January 13, 1962, in Lancaster, Pennsylvania) is an American playwright who is currently an associate professor of theatre at Villanova University and an alumnus of New Dramatists.[1] He received a Bachelor of Music in viola performance from Oberlin Conservatory in 1984 and a Master of Arts in theatre from Villanova in 1989. He has been married to Megan Bellwoar since 1990.

Because of his background as a musician, Hollinger considers his plays compositions. He is quoted as saying, "Plays are music to me; characters are instruments, scenes are movements; tempo, rhythm and dynamics are critical; and melody and counterpoint are always set in relief by rests—beats, pauses, the spaces in between."[2]

Hollinger has written three short films for PBS and co-authored the feature-length Philadelphia Diary. His awards include the Roger L. Stevens Award from the Fund for New American Plays, three Barrymore Awards for Outstanding New Play, a Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle Award, the F. Otto Haas Award for an Emerging Theatre Artist, a Mid-Atlantic Emmy Award, a commission from The Ensemble Studio Theatre/Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Science and Technology Project, and fellowships from the Independence Foundation, Mid-Atlantic Arts Foundation, and Pennsylvania Council on the Arts.

Passo (equitazione)

Il passo in un'animazione realizzata attraverso le fotografie di Eadweard Muybridge risalenti al 1887. Il passo è l'andatura più lenta del cavallo, naturale, camminata e basculata, dove il cavallo poggia gli arti uno per volta, uno dopo l'altro. È un'andatura poco faticosa con velocità che varia da 5 a 7 km/h. Questo tipo di andatura viene definito simmetrico perché l'appoggio delle due zampe anteriori avviene secondo intervalli di tempo regolari, e basculato perché il cavallo comp...
