This course provides theoretical and historical perspectives on the representation of human movement in traditional and digital media. It surveys principal media applications currently in use in the dance field: film/video, photography, audio recording/editing/design, automated production elements, digital animation, motion capture, movement generation and modeling, web-based and interactive and virtual technologies. Students investigate problems concerning the nature of embodiment in visual and audio media, cross-modal perception in interdisciplinary artwork, and the innovative implementation of movement-based media. It is appropriate for those interested in creative and compositional work, as well as documentary, archival and promotional/marketing projects in movement-related fields.
