Hipercoreografias: corpo e imagem digital em experimentação na Companhia Moderno de Dança

Abstract

The current research aims to investigate the possibilities on digital mobile media uses as interfaces for creation in contemporary dance. Some experiments have been proposed to Companhia Moderno de Dança, from Belém, Pará, where the 10 participating subjects experienced relations on photographic and videographic corporal image creation, of themselves and others, in a proposal of recreation of views upon the body and the dance in the choreographic composition. The researches in movement and choreographic creation were understood by the visualization of images produced by the dialogic use of mobile digital media. The experiments, titled as “Videochoreographics”, were divided into three moments: Videochoreographic Experiments 1, in which creative possibilities have been developed with a fixed camera, and Videochoreographic Experiments 2, made up from the use of the camera movements and its filters and effects. Each one of these stages has culminated in the creation of short videodances, here called “videocorporeities”, which have been used for the elaboration of an interactive scenic installation that, added to the simultaneous registry of the corporal experimentation of the interpreters-creators, has resulted as the Videographic Experiments 3. The aesthetic result come from this experimentation was the technological hypermediation and hypermediatization of the body and the dance; such practice has been name as hyperchoreography.
