  • Digitalbeing: Visual Aesthetic Expression Through Dance
    DigitalBeing – Using the Environment as an Expressive Medium for Dance Magy Seif El-Nasr Thanos Vasilakos Penn State University University of Thessaly [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Dancers express their feelings and moods through gestures and body movements. We seek to extend this mode of expression by dynamically and automatically adjusting music and lighting in the dance environment to reflect the dancer’s arousal state. Our intention is to offer a space that performance artists can use as a creative tool that extends the grammar of dance. To enable the dynamic manipulation of lighting and music, the performance space will be augmented with several sensors: physiological sensors worn by a dancer to measure her arousal state, as well as pressure sensors installed in a floor mat to track the dancers’ locations and movements. Data from these sensors will be passed to a three layered architecture. Layer 1 is composed of a sensor analysis system that analyzes and synthesizes physiological and pressure sensor signals. Layer 2 is composed of intelligent systems that adapt lighting and music to portray the dancer’s arousal state. The intelligent on-stage lighting system dynamically adjusts on-stage lighting direction and color. The intelligent virtual lighting system dynamically adapts virtual lighting in the projected imagery. The intelligent music system dynamically and unobtrusively adjusts the music. Layer 3 translates the high-level adjustments made by the intelligent systems in layer 2 to appropriate lighting board, image rendering, and audio box commands. In this paper, we will describe this architecture in detail as well as the equipment and control systems used.

Every single person who sent in a video has an important role in this project becoming what it is, and it would not be the same without all of your beautiful submissions. To everyone at Movement Research thank you for allowing me to play and explore dance in an environment as wonderfully dynamic as New York City with you. A heartfelt thank you to George and Marjorie Chandler, of the Chandler Senior Experience Grant, who helped me achieve my dreams.

  • Virtual Dance Museums: the Case of Cypriot Folk Dancing
    EUROGRAPHICS Workshop on Graphics and Cultural Heritage (2021) A. Chalmers and V. Hulusic (Editors) Virtual Dance Museum: the case of Greek/Cypriot folk dancing A. Aristidou1;2y , N. Andreou1;2 , L. Charalambous1, A. Yiannakidis1, and Y. Chrysanthou1;2 1University of Cyprus, Nicosia, Cyprus 2CYENS Centre of Excellence, Nicosia, Cyprus Abstract In this paper, we have designed and developed a virtual dance museum to provide the technological tools that allow for widely educating the public, most specifically the youngest generations, about the story, costumes, music, and history of our dances. The holistic documentation of our intangible cultural heritage creations is a critical necessity for the preservation and the continuity of our identity as Europeans. In that direction, we have employed a specially designed relational database schema that holistically structures the information within the database, and is ideal for archiving, presenting, further analyzing, and re-using dance motion data. Data have been retargeted to a virtual character, dressed with traditional uniform and simulated to achieve realism. The users can view and interact with the archived data using advanced 3D character visualization in three ways: via an online 3D virtual environment; in virtual reality using headset; and in augmented reality, where the 3D characters can co-inhabit the real world. Our museum is publicly accessible, and also enables motion data reusability, facilitating dance learning applications through gamification. CCS Concepts • Computing methodologies !
