  • Grantee Name Georgia Tech Research Corporation Project Title
    Grantee Name Georgia Tech Research Corporation Project Title "Applied Movement: App Development for Choreography," by Jonah Bokaer, will be a framework consisting of software components that enable groups to participate in a shared movement-based artistic and educational experience by using their mobile phones. Project Progress and Successes Over the past two years, ties have been built (as recounted in the Interim/Discovery Phase report) and maintained. In addition, Crowd Codes, an app which explores "a new way of understanding our spaces and the ways we move through them," was developed and taken through beta testing. App development was stalled between July and November 2014, but engagement work continued in and out of the classroom on campus to build greater levels of student involvement. Historically engaged faculty were kept informed of new strategies, as their students have a skill set we sought to engage. Outreach: At the conclusion of this residency, we have offered a total of more than a dozen K- 12 engagement events, approximately 40 GT engagement events, and 25 or more local dance community engagement events, in addition to countless individual and small group meetings and conversations throughout the past two years ranging in subject from both general and advanced dance topics, shared with a variety of different audiences (general public, Atlanta Ballet company members, First Year Architecture students, advanced Digital Media students, Music Technology students and more) to app development and related technology to audience building to STEAM education best practices and local concerns. Outreach offerings throughout the residency have been widely varied, but all have been free of cost to participants.
