Dance-Tech Interfaces
What For?
# Towards active inter-subject intelligent embodied
engagement
# Towards designing and choreographing experiences and
interfaces that reverse the dominant perceptive hierarchy of
vision to touch and kinaesthesia (our somatic sense of
embodiment)
# To re-visite touch and kineasthesia as a basis for our
relationship with our body, the world, and one another. And
where visuals spring from the rich qualities of tactile and
somatic experience.
# To contribute to rising awareness about and change
attitudes towards subjective embodied experience within
mediated/wired environments.
# To become familiar with hidden aspects of embodiment
through new socializing situations.
# To address issues of body representations including
cultural politics of gender, ethnicity, health and aesthetics.
# To permanently alter perceptions and consciousness.
