Research Project: Kinetic Frames

Screendance is an umbrella term that encompasses dances and choreographies made for or disseminated through screen media. While dance practices maintained a consistent presence onscreen throughout the twentieth century, the contemporary cultural dominance of screen media ensures that even as dance remains the art of the body par excellence, it is shaped by media technologies more than ever.
“Kinetic Frames” is a research project that explores histories, practices, critical and theoretical foundations as well as contemporary experiments with screendance.
