This is your network and you make it with your participation!News about dance-tech.net:Golden Nica 2009 Nomination on Digital Communities for dance-tech.net:
In the beginning of March, I received an email from the Digital Communities Committee for the Ars Electronica's Golden Nica 2009 award, letting me know that our community was nominated for the award. This is so exiting and important! Just the fact that we were nominated is an important indicator of the relevance of our know how and that we are doing a good job in sharing knowledge and innovation. I believe that we have a lot of possibilities of winning. Keep rockin'!
Using the network for teaching:
More a more teachers and instructors are using the network for teaching in their courses, either using the videos to illustrate concepts or surveying the field. Some of them are formally creating groups for their classes or study groups. Thank you to initiators Rachel Boggia (Wesleyan University), Ellen Bromberg (University of Utah) and Grisha Coleman (Arts, Media and Engineering for Arizona State University).
Share with us if you are using the network for teaching or educational projects...also how are you collaborating creating new methods or strategies in its use? what are your student responses?
Research on Networking Dance Cultures:
I am writing this from Dresden. I just started a three months research trip exploring the possibilities of our network to augment the potential for translocal knowledge exchange and study the complexities of open platforms of information sharing across boundaries of countries, cultures, disciplines, technologies and bodies.
I will be in Dresden for 10 days sharing with the Forsythe Company while they are in residency performing (I will interview Bill Forsythe and some of his powerhouse creative team). I will also be preparing for a think tank on the future of performance and new media that will take place in Prague during Enter4, an exciting Conference on Art, Science and Technology.
Amsterdan, Beirut, Tunisia, Lausanne , Geneva, Annecy and Madrid are in the roadmap.I will be writing and video blogging intensively and let me know if you are around any of this places:We might meet up!
This research adventure is made possible in part with the support of Geneva Based Gilles Jobin Company and the Trans Media Akademie Hellerau, Dresden. Their support is helping us to realize this vision of an open forum for free exchange of knowledge for our community. Thank you again!
Special thanks to the directors of Dance New Amsterdam, where I work in NYC as a social networking specialist, for creating a sabbatical format that is allowing me to work remotely and to integrate this research on future innovative educational and audience development programs.
Movement Research Festival prepares for a Global Distributed performance in Dance-techTV network:
Dance-techTV is co-producing with the Movement Research Spring festival 2009 As the World Turns: a distributed collaborative performance experiment. The performance will be broadcasted using Movement ResearchTV, a new channel created by the new dance-techTV collaborative broadcasting platform.
From the Festival Program: "Launching from the Beirut International Platform of Dance/BIPOD, and traveling around the world, this experiment in distributed performance will be a global game of telephone as each city’s choreographer adds to the dance conversation."
As The World Turns culminates in NYC where the public can participate
Participating cities include: Brazil, England,France, Lebanon, Sweden, and the US.

I'm performing in the Movement Research Monday Night Series at Judson Church on
April 20th. Hope to see your there and show you what I do since I am new to this world...
looking forward
Vernita N'Cognita, "Ghost Traveler": Vernita Nemec’s “Ghost Traveler” continues the artist’s often humorous exploration of the ironies of aging. In this performance artwork, Nemec’s version of Butoh movement & monologue both inspires and responds to the live guitar sounds of Sean Carolan and the dance of Nicole Lee representing Nemec’s more youthful self. Just 15 minutes in length, this version of “Ghost Traveler” is but one of four artistic presentations during this evening of Movement Research’s Monday Night Series.
Vernita N’Cognita aka Vernita Nemec is a visual/ performance artist/ curator who has exhibited her art throughout the world in numerous solo and group exhibitions. Working in a variety of media, she came to performance art from a visual art background, recently discovering Butoh, studying with Akira Kasai, Ximena Garnica & others.
This is so great Marlon! Congratullations for the nomination and thank you so much for creating and keeping up such an important mean for our work.
besos,
Lali
