Body Editing: Dance Biofeedback Experiments in Apperception

Body Editing is a dual gesture-based and EEG platform that transforms movement, gesture and brain wave data into visual and audio feedback with which dancers engage improvisationally. The platform, uniquely, offers a creature that responds in emergent fashion to the dancer’s movement, allowing for improvisation. The emergent algorithm directing the creature’s response is informed by Karen Barad’s understanding that intra-action in emergent …
