Has anyone compared Labanotation and Sutton DanceWriting? There's quite a comprehensive site about Sutton at http://www.dancewriting.org/ which brings up a couple of issues: 1. Is Labanotation a dying language with limited usability in the modern world? 2. Does it make sense to come up with a new notational system that takes the best from different notation systems so that it is supports a full range of movement applications? The Sutton system includes 5 sections: Dance, Signing (for the deaf), Mime, Sports, and Science. What does Labanotation have that Sutton doesn't?
