Welcome to dance-tech.net.!
HOLA!
My name is Marlon Barrios Solano, I am the network creator and producer.

dance-tech.net is conceived as a social on-line destination for artist, theorists, technologist and organizations working on the confluence of embodied performance, science and new media.

Using the most advanced social software platforms and internet rich multimedia applications, dance-tech.net provides its members the possibility of sharing their work, ideas and research, generating opportunities for interdisciplinary and collaborative projects that explore the impact of new technology on the performance of movement and human creativity.

dance-tech.net approaches movement and dance as a relevant cognitive process that always happens within technologically enhanced environments.

We are interested the ways in which movement arts are practiced in coupling with emerging new media technologies and belief systems about bodies, life and humanness.

Open content, collective intelligence and collaboration and are the core values that propel dance-tech.net towards experiments of distributed creativity (as always has been) using the world wide web as the medium for exchange and experimentation on sustainable artistic/research practices.

dance-tech.net mission is to foster an ecological and systemic perspective of creative interaction that is instantiated with:

_a community of practice using social networking technology in this website http://www.dance-tech.net

_video podcasts with interviews and news on relevant artists, technologists, producers, theorists and events. These on line videos hope that they respond to the “pulse” of the field and generate further development. The podcasts live in the video section of dance-tech.net producer and in the dance-tech.net podcasts channel http://dancetechnet.blip.tv/.

_an on-line collaborative video platform (in development supported by Dance Film Association)

_partnerships with similar initiatives and organizations to join and coordinate efforts and maximize impact on distribution of outstanding dance and new media projects.

_organize off-line events such as lectures series, open conferences, workshops and performances.

_consulting and development on the use of on-line media tools for arts organizations

_originate and develop innovative ways of developing communities encouraging experimentation, critical thinking and knowledge aggregation.

_In the Fall 2008, dance-tech.net will co-produce DANCE+TECH, a show that will be distributed by Tendu.tv the first broadband internet TV channel dedicated to dance.
