Here’s a journal article published by a couple of researchers hosted at Synthesis last year that may be interesting to folks working on movement and responsive media, somatic experience, experimental dance and experimental technology, critical
studies of technoscience, or philosophy of movement:
Teoma is starting a PhD with the Centre for Dance Research (C-DaRE), Coventry University UK
and John is a postdoc at the Centre for New Music and Audio Technologies (CNMAT) Department of Music, University of California at Berkeley.
John and Teoma’s extended journal article is a good example of a durable outcome from the
research cluster hosted by Synthesis in the Heartbeat Residency: Choreography and Composition of Internal Time. This was a residency on temporality — sense of dynamic, change, rhythm
— held February 15- 20, 2015. AME iStage, Matthews Center, ASU.
Ambient color changes according to whether dancer’s heart is faster or slower than some rate in the rhythm accompaniment software. Synthesis Residency Jan 2015. (The overhead tube lamps from Ziegler’s “forest2" were not used in this particular experiment.)
Improvisation with dancer Naccarato, composer / system creator MacCallum, Synthesis team and members of ASU laptop orchestra (Lorkas). Synthesis Residency Jan 2015.
