"dance and tech" is a field of theft and non-authentic invention continued...

Hi Johannes, I agree, what's considered a tool at this time is relevant, and also I agree with your question to Raphael about the success of recent works, and whether or not data, or some other me...

"dance and tech" is a field of theft and non-authentic invention continued...

Hi Raphael. Thanks for this. I think you've made a really good point: that it depends on what the artist, or audience, values. You are expressing that your value is to start from raw material - wha...

Dance Technology; what is it?

I've been doing some thinking on my post a while ago - each of those categories are their own mediums. it's not fair to say that exploration in these media does not conceptually progress the field...

About Me (human):
i interrogate in order to break apart and make fluid again.
Website:
http://thevickiproject.wordpress.com
Where are you based?
The Ohio State University
Columbus, OH
Languages that you would use in this network besides English:
Spanish, German - seldom

I am creating VICKi as a tool to facilitate Gaming Literacy, Holistic Education, Constructivist Methods, and Phenomenology for an interactive dance and performance art technique.
How did you learn about dance-tech.net?
marlon
Environments and applications that you use the most for your projects
maxmspjitter, Maya, Final Cut ( or any other video editing), camera work, Second Life, Protools (other sound editing software), robotic devices, web based platforms, other
Which other:
Live - - any of these programs besides max are all supportive of VICKi, so I don't work extensively in any of them, but rather functionally
How do you train yourself or your performers. How do you approach your embodied practices? what kind of technique do you use?
i'm returning from a year off of training after intensively questioning my foundation, and basically the foundation of dance and every other thing in the world with it.

I am interested in social change. I immerse myself in local art as a reminder of what theory can undo if it gets lost inside itself. I am interested in the story of the "average joe", how stories intersect to penetrate the local ideological power structures one person at a time. one relationship at a time. there is so much in there.

Meanwhile, getting into somatics - Alexander, Release Technique, and maybe some Reiki and Yoga. I'm interested in accessing the deeper energies to initiate with more focused effort.
How do you relate your work to the goal of this site? how would you like to participate?
ah, i've been mostly invested in connections and discourse
Any additional information about your self or your organization (your BIO or or the Mission of the organization you represent):
i am an arts mutt who comes from a pretty unusual family in a small town. i am sort of awkward, but charmingly so, at least i like to think - wait, this is starting to sound like a personal ad.

Hi Julie. Sounds great! How is work at EMMA? I'd be so interested to chat with you about what's going on in the lab and in your work. Will you be at SDHS this year? If so, we should absolutely meet up. I'd love to hear a lecture/see a performance if you'll be showing something too! I'll be giving a lecture on perception/presence of digital dance events. Hope to see you in San Francisco this summer!

"dance and tech" is a field of theft and non-authentic invention

On the "genre" of dance and technology, a comment was made that the people who use the tools in dance and tech are just feeding off of the creativity of the person who invented the tool.

    The early Victorians were the first generation to see themselves through the camera lens, but the idea of photography, the possibility of making an exact reproduction of visual experience, was one – like flight and the philosophers' stone – that had haunted the imagination of inventors for centuries.

    Matthias Bruggmann est photographe reporter, et même plus précisément « photographe de guerre », les territoires qu’il photographie sont la Somalie, l’Afghanistan, l’Irak, Haïti.

À la recherche d'êtres humains, le photographe insiste au-delà de l'Europe, il pénètre en Asie, Russie, Mongolie, Chine, avec le transsibérien, mais il ne rencontre aucune densité humaine. Partout, la géographie prédomine et rend l'espèce humaine négligeable.
