{{notability|date=July 2015}} '''Liquid and digits''' is a type of [[Gesture|gestural]], [[interpretive dance|interpretive]], [[rave dance|rave]] and [[urban dance|urban]] [[street dance]] that sometimes involve aspects of [[mime artist|pantomime]]. The term invokes the word ''liquid'' to describe the fluid-like motion of the dancer's body and appendages and ''digits'' to refer to illusions constructed with the dancer's fingers. Liquid dancing has many moves in common with [[popping (dance)|popping]] and [[waving (dance)|waving]]. ("Waving" is a style of dance where the dancer tries to make it appear that waves are rolling through their body.)<ref>{{Cite web|title=Waving|url=https://dancebeat.lv/en/dance_styles/waving-2/|access-date=2021-09-24|website=Dancebeat|language=en-US}}</ref> The exact origins of the dances are uncertain, although they came out of either popping, [[rave]]s, or both sometime from the 1970s to 1990s.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Liquids and Digits|url=https://prezi.com/p/o8vwflspsd7k/liquids-and-digits/|access-date=2021-09-24|website=prezi.com|language=en}}</ref> The dance is typically done to a variety of [[electronic dance music]] genres from [[trance music|trance]] to [[drum and bass]] to [[glitch hop]], depending on the dancer's musical taste. {{Citation needed|date=July 2015}} ==References== {{reflist}} ==External links== *[http://liquiddance.tumblr.com/ Liquid & Digitz Dance Repository]: A collection of liquid and digits tutorials. *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBIfCQJi32U popular video of LPEric liquid dancing] {{Street dance}} [[Category:Syllabus-free dance]]
