As her technological expertise grew more sophisticated, so did the other

aspects of her dances. ■Although she gave little thought to music in her

earliest dances, she later used scores by Gluck, Beethoven, Schubert, Chopin,

and Wagner, eventually graduating to Stravinsky, Fauré, Debussy, and

Mussorgsky, composers who were then considered progressive. ■She began to

address more ambitious themes in her dances such as The Sea, in which her

dancers invisibly agitated a huge expanse of silk, played upon by colored

lights. ■Always open to scientific and technological innovations; she

befriended the scientists Marie and Pierre Curie upon their discovery of

radium and created a Radium Dance, which simulated the phosphorescence of

that element. ■She both appeared in films—then in an early stage of

development—and made them herself; the hero of her fairy-tale film Le Lys de

la Vie (1919) was played by René Clair, later a leading French film director.
