A costly but short-lived production most often results. Composition and preparation in Australia is assigned, most often, three to four weeks with little recognition of the need for time to explore, test, and revise creations. The research project, Unspoken Knowledges, was motivated by the observation that the creation and development of significant works takes time.
#PSYCHOLOGICAL PROCESSES. PROFESSIONAL#
The large amount of video material as well as journal notes document a nine-month project led by choreographer Anna Smith and seven highly experienced professional dancers. Implications of the ART results for industry and ideas for further research are discussed.ĭuring 19 a collaborative research team in Australia involving the Victorian College of the Arts, dance industry partners (Australian Dance Council, The Australian Choreographic Centre), and researchers from MARCS Auditory Laboratories at the University of Western Sydney captured on video the evolution of new dance works by two elite choreographers. The development of continuous measurement devices is also outlined. Themes and movement motifs that emerged as central to the creation of a new dance work (Anna Smith’s Red Rain) were echoed in interpretations of the work provided by expert and novice audience members.
Methods include a case study of choreographic cognition and development and application of a psychometric instrument-the Audience Response Tool (ART)-to measure psychological reactions to dance. This paper describes different empirical methods and tools of analysis to investigate the cognitive processes involved in creating new movement material-choreographic cognition-and to capture psychological responses elicited by live performance of contemporary dance. Theories of cognition that have been developed and tested in the context of verbal patterns, in a single modality, with little consideration of temporal and cumulative processes are inadequate. For example, choreographic cognition is non-linear memory for movement is non-verbal and kinaesthetic audience response is temporal, multi-modal and multidimensional. It epitomises qualities of human behaviour that defy observation, measurement, and analysis.
