I dont understand ICK...
Right, you can put the guitar down and dance to your loop! Especially
interesting if you dont play alone, so another musician can play with
your dancing...
It seems to me that contact improv is rather a set of roules and
exercises to make people aware than a style to be shown on stage.
Someone who went through such school can just improvise free, no?

good idea!
they do participate with stepping, clapping, even singing sometimes,
but I did not think of looping that. But: how would you do it without
creating feed back?
