Virtual and Physical Dance
I am director and choreographer for Ballet Pixelle (balletpixelle.org) and am working to explore the intersection of physical and virtual dance. I welcome any and all discussions. We are looking at avatars interacting with real dancers. We are "dancing into the digital future..." Does anyone have any experience with this?
Also, does anyone have/use a low-cost motion capture system?

Maybe I have to get an account there now... oh no, too many communities to keep track of... Anyway, maybe later when everything else is sorted out. :)

- Hello,
I'm Emelie. I just replied to your blog post, and got interested in your work. It'd be interesting to learn how you work in Second Life. I've never used that community but I can kind of see a connection to the work we do in Tele-Plateaus. Have a look at my website http://qaw.se/cctvm.php if you feel like it.
