This is a link post Dr Peter Lovatt, a psychologist at the University of Hertfordshire, dances for you.
This just cracked me up, it's The Office in scientific form!
*edit* and for those who miss the link at the bottom: news.bbc.co.uk/today/hi/today/newsid_7680000/7680799.stm

I wish him luck, but I don't dance like any of his examples, I use the 'bounce to the music whilst painting pictures of the other leading rhythms with my hands' techno style of dancing thewendyhouse.org/oct08/oct20.htm and I really can't see how you can do research into dancing without involving the music!

The back story is really interesting too, about how women seem to prefer the dancing styles of men with higher testosterone, or more symmetrical moves.

It's the science that's naked, not us. We have to wear clothes otherwise we get chemical burns (and arrested after the students complain).

This is a normal post I might listen
being in Essex. Perhaps the symmetrical dancing subconciously indicates a healthy brain, good genes so worth procreating with.

This is a normal post I think that's the jist of it
A sexual selection mechanism, much like a peacock's tail.

I'll also be making a right buffoon of myself, wearing goggles that shift your vision 10 degrees right, thus mucking up your hand-eye coordination something rotten. I may even dance in the studio this week...
