Tommy is one of the dancers in this 20-minute piece called "Cipher XY," by Brandon Whited, choreographer, in collaboration with the dancers themselves. Tommy is featured in the third movement of the composition, which begins at around 15 minutes.

Tommy also appears at other times throughout, particularly at 8:30 and 10:00.

The movement beginning at 15:00 is what they performed at the Rochester Fringe Festival back in September. Afterward Tommy told me it was part of a larger work, so it's great to see the entire thing. Loved it! :D

Here's a direct link to the video:

A "Life After Billy" segment has been added to Tommy's Billy profile. He's had a lot going on educationally and performance wise. See the details:
