Interactive dance-making: online creative collaborations

This article presents the author's interactive dance composition projects, the Hands-On Dance Project and the TRIAD Project. It examines the potential for computer technology to enhance the interactive art-making process, enabling participation in choreography via Internet communications. By facilitating human-to-human communication, interactive creative environments can be created for participants with a variety of levels of previous dance experience. Participation in these projects is shown to have the capacity to provide a learning environment for all participants.
