	KQED Arts: Profile - Merce Cunningham
		During the early 1940s, Cunningham performed with the legendary Martha Graham, originating roles in works like "Appalachian Spring" and "El Penitente." Though he was heavily influenced by the Graham technique of dancing, Cunningham's own choreography would break away from her mythological, story-based ballets and move toward a more conceptual approach to dance.
		Like Cunningham himself, his dancers are often ballet-trained, but their extraordinary physical awareness allows them to tune into movement with an analytical sensitivity.
		Cunningham's love of technology has also led him to experiment with a computer imaging software called DanceForms, which he uses to create many of his works, but which also allows for an anatomical study of the possible motion of the body.
