Special Topics in Immersive Media; Immersive Visual and Embodied Interfaces for Dance
Credits: 3
Grad Meth: Reg, P-F, Aud
We will explore methods for quantifying dance's kinesthetic data using motion capture technologies and other physical sensors, before focusing on translating those data into immersive visual and embodied interfaces.The goal of which is to create new ways of archiving, understanding, andexperiencing dance. Throughout the course, we will thus ask importantepistemic and cultural questions about choreographic design's role in shaping alternative ways of knowing and experiencing dance via creative mediation. Choreographers and designers are encouraged to enroll. We will be using TouchDesigner and Arduino software where prior coding experience may be useful but not mandatory.
