<x-charset iso-8859-1>ok...
if ya want my insight...check out organised sound journal in Uk (im based in
australia) for the new one coming out with an article i did when i went to
choreolab2000 in germany, stiem and stufflike that.

its not a question of if dancers should/are using technology...because these
days they are...thats what the performing arts is.

its just how well its done

how immersive

relevent to local culture

and not just geeks on computers
