Abstract
TêDance aims at developing interaction between the physical and virtual worlds, using dance as a privileged space for exploring this symbiotic relationship. The project integrates a heterogeneous research team including specialists in engineering, biomechanics, choreography, theatre and dance studies. The project’s key words are: MOCAP (Motion Capture), augmented reality and choreography. Several questions about the human body emerge as a result of the cross over between these areas.
