In Cooperation with:
FAR – Fashion and Robotics. (University of Art and Design Linz in cooperation with the Johannes Kepler University Linz.
The cooperation consists of the realization of Motion Capture of a dance solo from a famous repertoire (“Angst” by Dore Hoyer)
The technology used was::
Vicon motion tracking with 6 infrared cameras Vero. The obtained data will be analyzed with the software Nexus (version 12).
Researchers involved:
Julio Andrés Escudero (FAR)
Damián Cortés Alberti, Adrián Artacho, Leonard Horstmayer
- Dance as an artistic practice is a multilayered phenomenon. It is a historically specific practice; it constitutes bodies; it depicts expression forms; it develops specific skills in bodies transgressing the dance’s realm. This project puts dance practices center stage to investigate the human body’s multilayeredness as place and source of agency,revealing their multi-layered manifestation in multiple layers of rendering.
