About Me (human/individual)/interests, work..short bio/ THis is the most important. It is the only way to know that you are not a SPAMBOT!Be generous!: Rashana Smith is a dancer, choreographer, educator and technologist. With twenty-four years of dance experience and fourteen years working with network technologies as her background, Smith creates choreographic work and educational settings that focus on embodied interaction. Her current research involves the integration of digital interfaces with documentary-style videos as a way of highlighting the process of human perception. Most recently, Smith authored the Vera J. Blaine Choreographic Resources website as archival documentation of the teaching methods of Vera J. Blaine and as an online teaching tool for dance educators.
Smith received her MFA in Dance at The Ohio State University with a focus on Choreography and Technology. While at OSU, she taught Dance Composition and Modern and Jazz techniques. She also taught Ballet, Social Dance, Dance in the Twentieth Century, and Dance Kinesiology at Wittenberg University and is currently Visiting Assistant Professor at Ohio Wesleyan University.

This is a social networking website connecting people concerned about innovation and experimentation on art, dance, embodiment, cognition, science, networks, post-humanism, media and the unstable landscape of contemporary culture and life.

We are in a transitional phase and refocusing the network with a broader interdisciplinary framework. It will reflect a contemporary community interacting and embedded unstablelandscape.
