<x-flowed>Dear Aseel

I am a videographer/ex-dancer who creates movement pieces for the camera.  
For me, using technology is not about manipulating the body, but rather it 
is about giving the body a unique physical, emotional and spatial 
orientation.  Video is another perspective in which to capture and 
articulate details, subtleties, hidden crevasses, angles, spatial 
territories.  I do not treat technology as a separate, mechanistic entity.  
For me, their is a body behind the camera who is also alive and moving and 
responding to the situation in a physical way.

What is your research?

Hi.
How do dancers feel about technology being immersed in dance (whether it is
for instruction or manipulating dance performances).  I am doing research on
this topic and any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Aseel
