Dance-tech platforms. MotionBank and Other Choreographic Media Tools Workshop@ HZT Berlin. In this workshop several choreographic media tools will be introduced and worked with.
Among those are digital publications of recent years: Steve Paxton: Material for the Spine (DVD-rom, 2008)Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker/ Rosas: A Choreographer's Score (4 DVDs, 2012)William Forsythe: Synchronous Objects (web-based, 2009)Motion Bank -scores by Deborah Hay,Jonathan Burrows and Matteo Fargion The Siobhan Davies Archive project (web-based, 2007)meta-academy@bates 2013 on the work of Nancy Stark Smith. Choreography or ELSE. Digital networks as medium for embodied knowledge. Dance-tech project explores the potential of the new Internet technologies for knowledge production and distribution on body based artistic practices and it's intersections with other disciplines such as new media, architecture, philosophy, anthropology and more.
All dance-tech projects attempt to place situated embodiment as a fundamental condition and movement arts as relevant practices to contemporaneity with interdisciplinary framework. dance-tech is conceived as a tactical media project and it aims to develop and maintain a series of online and hybrid collaborative platforms for the interdisciplinary explorers of the performance of movement, innovators and emergent performance practices. It develops as an experimental, adaptable and changing pedagogical intervention on the knowledge distribution systems of contemporary performance and their contexts. Innovation in motion...

ACCAD. SynchronousObjects Blog. Below we profile three final projects created in Professor Stephen Turk’s second year undergraduate installation class conducted during spring 2009 at the Knowlton School of Architecture at the Ohio State University.
This studio deals with material fabrication, notation and fundamental representational skills. The images are from the students’ preliminary results from their research analysis and design investigations and the final installation in the Knowlton School of Architecture. 1. THE SCREEN MACHINE: Project team: Ross Hamilton, Heather Brandenburg, Sarah Simeon, Minyoung Kim. The Screen Machine is an installation that reveals and conceals the body. Ross Hamilton describes his intentions and methods in creating The Screen Machine: “In researching the dance, I chose to focus on the interactions between the dancers that occur in the form of cues. 2.

Interview with Scott deLahunta, part 1: On working processes and digital realms. My next interview from the series of Cognitive of the Performative programme by Centre for Drama Art aka cdu was made during the Workshop with Choreographic Objects that I attended in December, guided by Scott deLahunta.
Scott deLahunta is a former dancer and choreographer, who began working in the mid-1990s as a researcher and coordinator for projects bringing together new media and live performance practices. For years he’s been advocating for creating software tools for choreographers from the environment of emerging new technologies.

It is from within this framework that his engagement began as researcher and advisor on projects with choreographers such as Wayne McGregor, William Forsythe, Emio Greco & Pieter C.

Scott deLahunta: Choreographic Objects: artifacts and traces of physical intelligence. Trio moving only when someone else is moving. Algorithm. Flow chart of an algorithm (Euclid's algorithm) for calculating the greatest common divisor (g.c.d.) of two numbers a and b in locations named A and B.
The algorithm proceeds by successive subtractions in two loops: IF the test B ≥ A yields "yes" (or true) (more accurately the numberb in location B is greater than or equal to the numbera in location A) THEN, the algorithm specifies B ← B − A (meaning the number b − a replaces the old b). Similarly, IF A > B, THEN A ← A − B. The process terminates when (the contents of) B is 0, yielding the g.c.d. in A.
