This GarageBand-like dance app lets you remix choreography from the New York City Ballet. Justin Peck choreographed eight 1 minute dances for Passe-Partout, an app Abbott Miller designed for 2wice. He then performed and filmed them. Composer Aaron Severini also wrote an original piece for it in eight layers.

Passe-Partout allows you to create your own movement piece based on Peck's moves on your [iPad](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mattebox). According to Abbott, the dance app intends to narrow in on the intersection between dance and design. By tapping and tilting the tablet's touch screen, you can re-arrange the different dance moves and music to create a new piece that you can play back and share, if desired.

While the ballet can be seen as an elitist activity, the $1 app brings Peck's choreography to anybody with a dollar to spare.
