A performance of Loïe Fuller's Serpentine Dance by an unknown dancer, colorized black and white film, circa 1890s.
Loïe Fuller (1862-1928), an American dancer, was a pioneer of modern dance and the inventor of the Serpentine Dance. To achieve the abstract colorful illuminated aesthetic of the Serpentine Dance, she collaborated with her partner (in work and in life) Gab Sorère (1870-1961), one of the rare (if not the only) feminine French art promoters, filmmakers, stage designers, mechanical innovators and choreographers of the Belle Époque (1871-1914). The two women made multiple films together, few of which survived.
It's unsure how many recordings of the Serpentine Dance from the time are actually performances of Loïe Fuller, or of dancers who followed in her footsteps, some maybe borrowing her name. A lot of the films we can find today of the Serpentine Dance were produced by the Edison Studios and the Lumière brothers, often featuring the dancer Annabelle Whitford.

Multiple pro-Kremlin media figures circulated the post's false claims, including prominent Russian journalist Vladimir Soloviev and the state-controlled Russian outlet RT, according to the DFR Lab's report. "The result is on this photo: fiery 'greetings' to the invaders," the Security Service of Ukraine wrote alongside a photo showing several military vehicles among plumes of black smoke. Stocks closed in the red Friday as investors weighed upbeat remarks from Russian President Vladimir Putin about diplomatic discussions with Ukraine against a weaker-than-expected print on U.S. consumer sentiment. "The inflation fire was already hot and now with war-driven inflation added to the mix, it will grow even hotter, setting off a scramble by the world’s central banks to pull back their stimulus earlier than expected," Chris Rupkey, chief economist at FWDBONDS, wrote in an email. "A spike in inflation rates has preceded economic recessions historically and this time prices have soared to levels that once again pose a threat to growth." This ability to mix the public and the private, as well as the ability to use bots to engage with users has proved to be problematic. In early 2021, a database selling phone numbers pulled from Facebook was selling numbers for $20 per lookup. Similarly, security researchers found a network of deepfake bots on the platform that were generating images of people submitted by users to create non-consensual imagery, some of which involved children.
