ABSTRACT
Dance is an artform using the human body. These works were made to reflect various dances. I think dance is the most beautiful when the movement of clothes and dancers match. My aim in presenting this work was to achieve rhythmical movement and varied beauty. The works submitted are images of ballet, flamenco, and a tango. Ballet is expressed as an exquisite movement in a solemn atmosphere, flamenco is expressed as passion, and tango as a bending and twisting of the body. The visual narrative is important to me - I try to create works which tell a story that delight and intrigue. There are a lot of mathematical forms in my works. The mathematical form is natural and integral to computational art. There are many strategies in computational work: some involve repeating simple designs or mathematical concepts, or a set number of iterations. I always feel that image making is all about a balance in proportion. I have found that the more I inform myself of these proportions the more they enter my intuitive creative process.

DANCING, Dance ANd Choreography: an Intelligent Nondeterministic Generator
TAPIA '09: The Fifth Richard Tapia Celebration of Diversity in Computing Conference: Intellect, Initiatives, Insight, and InnovationsIn this paper, we describe our proof of concept system that uses genetic algorithms to generate choreography for the waltz, a ballroom dance. We detail the representation of the dance steps and sequences our system manipulates, and our design of the ...
Creating an autonomous dancing robot
ICHIT '09: Proceedings of the 2009 International Conference on Hybrid Information TechnologyA robot with the ability to dance autonomously has many potential applications, such as serving as a prototype dancer for choreographers or as a participant in stage performances with human dancers. A robot that dances autonomously must be able to ...
