Google Commemorates Martha Graham

If you've set Google as your homepage you've probably noticed the animated Doodle in commemoration of Martha Graham's birthday, 11 May 1894. It was created by Ryan Woodward. It's very well made. As you can see above, the doodle shows dancers performing a series of typical Graham moves. The whirling trails of their limbs spell out the Google logo. The storyboard gives some idea of the drawings that went into the animation.
