C3KE Seminar: U. Leeds, Dance Performance and Technology

On Friday, 30.11. the "Centre for Creative and Cultural Knowledge Exchange" (C3KE) organised a lunch-time seminar for its members at Bates Mill in Huddersfield University. The topic of this seminar was a presentation by Sita Popat and Scott Palmer from Leeds University about their work on the interrelation of dance and projective technology. Very interesting was the option of using an IR camera to track the motion of the dancer and feeing this back into a computing system, which in turn would then present visual projections into the environment of the dancer.
