In calling her company Wind-Up Dances, Emily Faulkner has hit upon an accurate label. In the two dances she presented at the Baryshnikov Arts Center on Friday, her default way of moving is toylike. The body twists in segments, softly but mechanically, all elbows and knees. Occasionally one part of the toy helps another part along. A less flattering label might be Chiropractic Choreography. In her ''Wind-Up Circus,'' a 40-minute piece for six women, much of the toy movement is constricted by child-size chairs and tables, which are sometimes set with toy cups and teapots. The props (by Fara'h Salehi) raise expectations of Lewis Carroll whimsy, but the dancers' manipulation of them, even by nose, fails to spark much delight. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

The group of whales called rorquals gulp vast amounts of water, then expel it through their comblike baleen plates to filter out millions of fish for consumption in seconds. The technique requires a complex and rapid movement of the jaws. Now scientists have discovered a sensory organ in the whales' chins that helps them orchestrate it. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

DOUGLAS CHAPMAN, 39, beamed as his guys arrived -- a dozen muscular men who entered a Bronx gym last weekend and walked right past the weights and exercise machines, and headed instead toward a set of jungle-gym bars. One by one, they pulled themselves up over a chin-up bar with a clean-and-jerk motion, then vaulted their bodies out, flinging themselves around the bars -- a spin here, a flip there -- and finishing with a pure show of strength, like handstand push-ups or a leverlike horizontal body hold.

You may think you're pretty familiar with your hands. You may think you know them like the back of your hand. But as the following exercises derived from the latest hand research will reveal, your pair of bioengineering sensations still hold quite a few surprises up their sleeve. Make a fist with your nondominant hand, knuckle side up, and then try to extend each finger individually while keeping the other digits balled up tight. For which finger is it extremely difficult, maybe even impossible, to comply? [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

CORRECTION APPENDED Aristotle believed circular motion to be a distinguishing characteristic of perfection. If you have ever seen a world-class runner cruise around a track, you may well agree that a body curving in motion is a sight of beauty. On a snowy day in late October, Luis Galvan was not particularly quick or light as he trudged around the otherwise deserted track at McCarren Park in the Williamsburg and Greenpoint area of Brooklyn. He was hunched forward against the wind, a red-and-blue umbrella protecting him from the onslaught of snow. More like a clumsily falling moon rock than a planet harmoniously orbiting the sun, Galvan did not seem concerned with beauty, but commitment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Twenty-one steps keep Diane Kessler a virtual prisoner in her home.

To go anywhere, she must depend on her son or a network of neighbors to carry her. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

A woman in white is roaming, searching. Slowly her movements fill each of the long, unusual, quiet chords of ''The Unanswered Question,'' by Charles Ives. Now she advances through space; now, staying on the spot, stretching her upper body, she arches her neck up to face the sky. There's a sense that she does not know what she is seeking, but that she cannot stop her quest. It does not, however, agonize her: her motion has gentleness, and a strange mixture of restraint and luxuriance. This solo is ''Journey,'' by the choreographer Joyce Trisler, who died in 1979. At City Center on Tuesday it returned to the repertory of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater after an absence of 20 years. Ms. Trisler was dear to Ailey, who dedicated his ''Memoria'' to her. Her own dance company continued into the 1980s; today, however, her work is rarely seen onstage. It's impressive, therefore, that Robert Battle, the new artistic director of the Ailey company, has added ''Journey,'' created in 1958, to his company's stock. We expect new directors to add the modern and the famously historic; we don't expect them to show an instinct for the could-so-easily-have-been-forgotten work from yesteryear.
