| Use of technology in the classroom and studio has become a significant expectation of all teachers, including dance and physical educators. This session presents a demonstration of the CD-ROM devloped by contemporaray ballet choreographer William Forsythe in conjunction with ZKM, Karlsruhe and German Dance Archives-Cologne. Utilization and practical application of Forsythe's "improvisation technologies" in affecting movement invention and movement analysis will be observable through projection, concurrent discussion, live demonstration and participation. The application of Forsythe's theories of improvisation to all levels of dance making and experience, including K-12, will be a primary focus. |
