  • Comment: Essentially missing media mentions that would ascertain notability (ie, in which way is this art so unique that it would warrant an article in the press?)Also, being shortlisted is different from winning a prize. Superboilles (talk) 21:36, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: This has far too many external links, which violates the guidelines at WP:EL.Please remove all inline external links from the article main body, there should be no links pointing to external resources until the footnotes in the 'References' section. Convert to citations where relevant.The 'External links' section (there is no such thing as 'External links & Press' section) should have only 1-2 links, typically to an official website of the subject, everything else must go. Similarly, the 'Soundtrack links' is superfluous, and non-standard.You can find advice on these appendix sections in the Manual of Style, at MOS:APPENDIX.

Art project by Anouk Kruithof

Universal Tongue is a multifaceted art project by Dutch artist Anouk Kruithof based on found footage of diverse dance styles from across the globe, collected from the Internet.

The project encompasses an 8-channel video installation, a book publication, a website with an online database, and a single-channel video edition. Universal Tongue was presented at over 30 international exhibitions, including solo shows of the artist and belongs to several museum collections.

About the Project

Universal Tongue exhibition at Museum Voorlinden, The Netherlands, 2022.

Universal Tongue was created through an extensive research of dance found footage conducted by Anouk Kruithof along with an international team of 52 researchers. For the project’s purposes 8.800 videos were collected from YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, summing up to 250 hours of video material presenting a variety of dance videos from different social and cultural contexts of the globe, showcasing viral phenomena and social media trends. The collected footage has been described by each researcher, who categorised in total over 1000 dance styles from all 196 countries of the world.

Universal Tongue was set as an art project, which highlights fluidity, hybridity and interconnectedness of the modern digital era while honouring and celebrating the diverse historical and cultural backgrounds of the researched dances. In 2018, Kruithof created the centerpiece of Universal Tongue - an 8-channel video installation, presented at Medialab during the Cinekid Festival in Amsterdam commissioned by the curator Ward Janssen. The installation is rhythmically arranged using a unified soundtrack remixed with music samples from the found footage, creating an immersive audiovisual environment for the audience of four hours duration. The videos create an ongoing dance flow of looped moving images, where dance is presented as a form of an embodied knowledge of cultural identity, self-expression, fun and empowerment. Art work's immersive character is said to invoke a blur between categories of the world order, such as country, continent or culture of dance contexts - highlighting global interconnectedness of human expression and digital culture. The installation displays over 1,000 dance styles, comprising 32 hours of footage in total. In addition to the 8-channel installation, Universal Tongue also exists as a single-channel video edition created in 2022.

In 2021, Kruithof published the book UNIVERSAL TONGUE, with a second edition following in 2022. The book documents and describes all the dance styles categorised during the project’s research, accompanied by screenshot images from the found footage videos. The book is playfully described by the author as a “DANCYCLOPEDIA through the Jungle of Internet”, which pays tribute to the diversity and complexity of dance as global cultural phenomenon.

The project's findings are also presented in an online database. This database categorises and provides detailed information on the various dance styles identified, making the research publicly available.
