Zardia

Research into new technology

Chrissie is convinced that choreography and dance will be transformed by advanced technologies. Her research into the sciences behind the motion capture process confirms it.

ArtsWA funded a 3-year Research Fellowship allowing continuous investigation into Motion Capture Technology, its implications and use in choreography and teaching. Working with Medialab Paris and PsychoGraphics Perth, Chrissie created her virtual dancer Zardia.

A real dancer (Claudia Alessi) wearing a wireless motion-tracking rig performed choreographic phrases, instantly captured by computer. This character, existing solely in virtual space, is a tiny glimpse into the potential of these exciting technologies.
