I so dig her musicality, presence, and flair for dramagic accents & poses here. ^_^  

(Ooh!  And I just made up a new word!  A would-have-been typo became somethin’ I’m leavin’ here on purpose- ‘cause it SO fits!  Magical + dramatic = DRAMAGIC! ^_^  Squee!  #bellydancewordsmith ;D)

Joline Andrade peforms Fusion Belly Dance at The Massive Spectacular!   

And since it looks like I’m gonna be gone for the weekend, I’ll give you guys ooooone more Geek Friday video (to tide you over until I get back). :D  Meet the ladies of Antipode, who also specialize in geeky bellydance! ^_^  Here, they rock it out w/moves inspired by the great, the classic.. SUPER MARIO BROTHERS!  And I hope you dig their creativity as much as I do, ‘cause I think this number is adorable. ^_^

Have a good weekend y’all, and again, if you have any requests or videos, pics, or other goodies to share for other Geek Fridays, please do!  I’m always open to suggestions, and would love to see more grand, geeky, bellydance greatness! ♥

Next for our Geek Friday video games theme, we’ve got this BADASS concoction by 2 of the members of Raks Geek, a troupe that SPECIALIZES in geeky bellydance! ^_^  

Using the game Assassin’s Creed as inspiration, this is a -chill inducing- Fusion sword piece that’s beautifully staged, artfully choreographed and delightfully dark; with sharp movements & dramatic, loverly accents. ^_^  I positively adore this piece, and wouldn’t mind learning it m’self! ^_^  

In fact, this reminds me a lot of Night, the president of our former bellydancing club at RU.  She’s a BIG fan of computers, anime, and other awesomely geeky stuff, loved our nifty swords (that we got at MissBellydance.com- in BLACK XD), and often wears costuming like this- as well as a hoodie in her “daily duds.” ^_^  (Plus, her dancing style is somewhat similar in its form & intent, so I can -totally- see her pulling something like this off. ^_^)  I bet she’d PLATZ over the costuming, choreo & intensity here, too. ^_^    

So for all my darkling divas, video gaming vixens, and especially you, Ms. Night, this is for you. ^_^  I hope I get to do something like THIS w/you someday, ‘cause it is WICKED! ♥♥

Now, get ready for one strong & super badass sword piece, and hold on to your scimitars (carefully ;)), ‘cause it’s gonna be one deadly ride-with an awesome soundtrack!. ;D

Today our theme for Geek Friday is… *drumroll pleeeeaaaase!* VIDEO GAMES! :D  To start off the vids for today, we’ve got this adorable dance, inspired by the game Portal.  XD

I’ve never played it m’self, but I’ve seen it played, and I -adore- all the merch, fan vids, and music people have created that’re inspired by it, as well as the idea/object of the game.  If y’all haven’t heard it before, I -highly- recommend checking out Jonathan Coulton’s song “Still Alive,” which was written by Mr. Coulton, and done by GLADOS- and then I believe got used in the credits of the game. ^_^  It is adorable and twisted just like the video game, and if you don’t like the version I’ve linked to, you can also find vids w/just one of them singing, should you prefer. :)  (But the one above plays the version w/Jonathan & GLADOS singing together. :))

But before you go and check out the game (comically dark and creative as all get-out), stay for a few and peep this bellydance, which uses sword, veil, and lots of spirit. ^_^  Hooray for creative, awesome, smart n’ spunky bellydancing geekygirls! ^_^

STUNNING performance here.  *applauds*  Love the dancing, love the intensity and mood, love the outfit, the lighting, and of course, love the tune!  (It’s on of my old-time favorites. ^_^)  GO Rajuli! ♥♥  YIP YIP!!
