How and why to write a movement? Who is the writer? Who is the
reader? They may be choreographers working with dancers. They may
be roboticists programming robots. They may be artists designing
cartoons in computer animation. In all such fields the purpose is
to express an intention about a dance, a specific motion or an
action to perform, in terms of intelligible sequences of elementary
movements, as a music score that would be devoted to motion
representation. Unfortunately there is no universal language to
write a motion. Motion languages live together in a Babel tower
populated by biomechanists, dance notators, neuroscientists,
computer scientists, choreographers, roboticists. Each community
handles its own concepts and speaks its own language. The book
accounts for this diversity. Its origin is a unique workshop held
at LAAS-CNRS in Toulouse in 2014. Worldwide representatives of
various communities met there. Their challenge was to reach a
mutual understanding allowing a choreographer to access robotics
concepts, or a computer scientist to understand the subtleties of
dance notation. The liveliness of this multidisciplinary meeting is
reflected by the book thank to the willingness of authors to share
their own experiences with others.
