Hi everyone,

I've been really inspired by some of the research going on in dance science, and am looking forward to new dialogues here.
My research is looking at the relationship between sport and theatre training - movement analysis is my focus - feel free to ask more, email or contact me about ideas / collaborations :)

Hello everyone,
I joined this group because I am very interested in technology applied to dance education as well as multimedia.

hi Allison,

I love dance science also but since not a dancer went the philosophy route. University of Washington DXArts has one of the best programs in human computer interaction, animations and theory but not sure about dance end but they are wide open to new forms!

Hello All-
I recently received an email from a woman seeking information regarding various intersections of dance and "science". See below
I've been out of the loop and thought that someone might be able to better direct her inquiry. Any thoughts?

My name is Allison Walker. I am looking for advice on an
interdisciplinary course of graduate study, researching the
intersection between dance and technology. My educational background includes a BFA in dance/ballet and a MS in Information, which focused on human-computer interaction. I'm not exactly sure how I found your website, but your interests seemed similar to mine so I wanted to contact you.

Interests that I'd like to research include investigations into time,
space, form and movement, movement analysis, performance theory, digital culture, and interactivity, technology and social behavior. I still love dance and if there was such a thing as "dance science", I would sign up as soon as possible. In investigating my interests, I have been researching different academic programs and looking for researchers, or possibly research opportunities, to further pursue these interests - I thought that you might have some insights and advice.

If you have any suggestions on where I might be able to look to find more information, I would appreciate any advice you have.
Thank you.

Sincerely,
Allison Walker
