a work in progress…
An experiment in the collaboration of dance, web and interactive art in two parts; a streaming dance performance, and an interactive choreography work.
The choreography uses sharp, staccato movements not so typical in contemporary/modern dance genres (such as traditional Graham or Limon techniques etc), combined with smooth connecting movements. Essentially, wannaboogie applies both fluid and sharp moves, composed using Contemporary/Modern dance techniques in the actual construction of movement phrases. In a sense, the choreography is representing how data travels across the Internet, in a fluctuating rhythm.
The interactive component, Boogie Machine 0.3.0, allows the viewer to create their own movement segments from a selection of the choreographed poses. It is a hands on experiment in choreography, allowing the user to create their own dance piece by combining individual moves.
It is a work in progress, any feedback would be appreciated.
