Contemporary Dance and Multimedia Performance Between Research and Experiment
Contemporary Dance and Multimedia Performance Between Research and Experiment

Summary/Abstract: The limit between experiment and research is increasingly attenuated. The centers, either academic, centered on research, or focused on the practical aspect, both European and North-American, which produce performances - focused on collaborative strategies - aim at the absorption of the latest techniques of visual reforms. The domain will become an important part in both research and the production of performance. On the other hand, the evolution of the choreographic performance has interdisciplinary thinking as starting point, through the involvement of filmic montage, of elements of happening and performance art, of the activity of Judson Dance Theatre, an experimental center which initially didn’t rely on a theoretical approach, but an experimental one, followed by a route from practice towards theory. The researches which will follow, the evaluations of the performance studies, of theatre analysis, of the dramaturgy of performance, are closely connected by the experiments made in this centre.
