The New York Times > Arts > Dance > A Dance and Its Digitized Echoes - This is so cool that my only regret is for not being able to actually see the work first hand. I have been a big fan of Trisha Brown's work and the idea of her collaborating with a bunch of techy's to create a "digitally-enhanced" performance is awesome. The idea of actually adding sensors on dancer's costumes and creating an artificial intelligence program that will respond to the input from the censors and create its own images dancing along the stage in response, sounds spectacular. It is also one of the bolder ways of using the new technology in an art that has been so profoundly human for ages. Incidentally, the humanness of the art is not lessened by the augmentations, but lifted to a new level, a new dimension. I want to see this!
