About Me (human/individual)/interests, work..short bio/ THis is the most important. It is the only way to know that you are not a SPAMBOT!Be generous!: After completing a dance degree focusing on choreography, Robyn specialised in creating contemporary performance art that was designed and moulded to particular environments. All of her pieces incorporate bizarre props and costumes, such as a large woollen cocoon and spider's web. Her fascination with the bizarre both in visual imagery and movement allows her to create surreal fantastic moving theatre. As part of al'Ka-mie she extends this ability using digital art capturing strangely beautiful images onstage.

Robyn has created more than eight professional pieces. Most of these were shown in Sydney, Australia. She performs and creates with improvisation as well as tightly crafted movement. She has worked as a performer doing both solo and group pieces in her own choreography as well as for seven Sydney choreographers, with UK-based Ground Effect, and improvised with Indonesian performers in London and Indonesia. .

Robyn grew up acting in commercials, small dramas and doing radio work. Prior to becoming a professional movement artist Robyn trained in scientific research and completed a PhD studying the behaviour of Kangaroos in the Australian bush.

In 2005 Robyn obtained an MA in Collaborative Arts at University College Chichester researching combining al'Ka-mie's moving virtual scenography with live dance. She continues to collaborate with Brian Curson as al'Ka-mie, in researching and creating performances that combine choreography of live dance and Real-time Animated Virtual Environments (RAVEs).
