gath-
ered at the Norwegian Institute in Rome for the working seminar
On Scale.
The
participants took scale as their starting point, reconsidering its relevance within
the historical and contemporary practices of exhibiting architecture, amongst
the city whose history perhaps best problematizes the issue. The papers present-
ed considered issues of monumentality and preservation, models and historic
exhibitions, and contemporary discourses surrounding art and architecture.
MOVEMENT QUALITIES AND PHYSICAL MODELS VISUALISATION
CENTRE FOR DESIGN RESEARCH WORKSHOP, 1-2 MARCH 2012
ORGANIZERS:
AHO, Ircam-Centre Pompidou and LIMSI-CNRS, Paris, France
COORDINATORS:
Sarah Fdili Alaoui, Frederic Bevilacqua, Christian Jacquemin
This event focused on dance and digital media such as whole body interaction,
dance documentation, pedagogy and representation and gesture augmenta-
tion. These topics benefitted from various contributions on movement analysis,
dance notation and representation, interactive installation for danced perfor-
mances, advanced real-time computer graphics, and movement synthesis for
dance gesture modeling. The goal of this workshop was to gather most recent
advances in these areas with a focus on the various relationships between vis-
uals or graphic feedback based on physical models and movement quality in
dance in both the artistic and scientific fields. The workshop aimed at promoting
scientific and artistic collaborations in this inter-disciplinary boundary. It offered
opportunities to disseminate recent research works through oral presentations,
demonstrations, and group discussions or round tables.
