How can various technologies, from the more conventional to the
very new, be used to archive, share and understand dance movement?
How can they become part of new ways of creating dance? What does
this tell us about the ways in which technology is part of how we
make sense and think? Well-known choreographers and dance
collectives including William Forsythe, Siohban Davis, Merce
Cunningham, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker and BADco. have initiated
projects to investigate these questions, and in so doing have
inaugurated a new era for dance archives, education, research and
creation. Their work draws attention to the intimate relationship
between the technologies we use and the ways in which we think,
perceive, and make sense. Transmission in Motion examines these
extraordinary projects 'from the inside', presenting in-depth
analyses by the practitioners, artists and collectives involved in
their development. These studies are framed by scholarly
reflection, illuminating the significance of these projects in the
context of current debates on dance, the (multi-media) archive,
immaterial cultural heritage and copyright, embodied cognition,
education, media culture and the knowledge society.
