ELECTRIC SLIDE Everbody dance now! Seriously, or the lights will shut off

ENERGY RAVES
In 2005, Worm, a combination night club and art space, opened in Rotterdam, Holland. Its walls were made of recycled boards, its toilets of oil drums and door handles of bicycle handlebars. Hard to top. But just a few months ago, another local nightlife project called the Sustainable Dance Club took Worm to town. Surely the result of an Ecstasy epiphany, the idea behind the venue is that its 20-by-20 foot dance floor converts energy generated from body movement into electricity that powers the lighting. And when you tire of eco-dancing, you can polish off some organic cocktails, then relieve yourself in one of the club's rainwater toilets. Oh, Holland.
