After exploring each other universes, we all expressed our opinions on the encounter with the question in mind about the possibilities, necessity & wishes for future encounters. A concrete proposal for an encounter was offered by Aniara: LabsurLab Medellín April 2011: a module/workshop on motion tracking & interactivity with a presentation at the end.
Were present & talkative: Aniara, Txalo, Guillermo, Gina, Luca, Oskar, Simon, Dorothé, An

Oskar
*continue: yes
*interesting to share the process – new media field: knowledge is vehemented directly to develop
-> possiblity to analyse from your point of view: body/machine & interaction on Fotograma
*brainstorming together was nice (confrontation/different ideas) – we don’t have time
we have infrastructure -> this obliges us to go too fast
*possibility for a suite: installation / new format…

Guillermo
*continue: yes
*interesting to know more about it, enjoys the fact that more than 1 person can go, allows deepening
-> now we worked with some relations, we can elaborate more (basic thing works)
audience is not understanding, f.ex. distance – things that happen inside the machine
-> performers can learn how to use it & hide it again, so people can make relations/think about what is happening
-> what you get but not in the way you expect it

Chalo
*we have the dispositive for a new way to show the ancient art (dance & theater),
now look for the dramatic point for it – dramatic sense
*proposal for next meeting: confront this technical dispositive to choreographers who do not know it

Aniara
*Fotograma & Kaleidoscope share the concept of ‘the ex-intimate body’ (vs private/public body), in a controlled public space it is enforced to always change its behaviour (through motion tracking & live data flows)
*proposal for next encounter : conceptual: the intimate body does not longer exist / it is a political body
*collaboration/projects (?) is too premature for a new project -> a step into this direction would be: working on a common concept, this means a thorough preparation of the encounter that would include a common reflection & how the programmer would approach the same problem in different ways

Luca
*share with Simon: similar + different
we have in common the attitude regarding technology -> choice of software, develop, open, share, …
what differ: works – we work in classical dance piece (Fotograma: stage/public) vs open game stage (Kaleidoscope)
*love these days for personal relationships -> share works
*interested to go on, not just to make partners or strange test -> would like to work a step deeper in quality of analysis, make us translation between the gesture of dancer & data
*you (Kaleidoscope) are working in social patterns, can be in order to share pattern/emotions
we can apport you: create a new game -> once we have done that, we can go further (we will know better each other, understand better)
you can apport us: notation – Fotograma is missing this, create annotation system & develop work deeper; Fotograma is chaotic process, not so much think & pause
-> comment Aniara: work on base of a new game, yes, but this does not exclude introducing a common concept.

Simon
*we have different practices, we don’t need to resolve, it can be a dialogue
*future: invite other people, so that it becomes a group, allows all of us to have our own positions + set topic for the workshop so that we can leave certain things at home
comment Aniara: motion tracking system = most distributed, functions well, a lot better than sensors, it will be possible at Labsurlab

An
likes it, would like to work more on text/words
comment Aniara: when I say the body, I’m not talking about mouvement only

[translation will be done SOON]
Gina
como es el movimiento en el juego: como hace mover el cuerpo / reglas establecidas y crean comandas (automatas) – ver el espacio que habiamos creado con cajitas es muy preciso (not in Fotograma)
-> lo puedes enteder / dulce: lo ves – ella no ve, solo percibe
cambia la percepcion de la vision y movimiento: mas facil de digerir
(en fotograma lo sientes – es una cosa de poder: sueltas un momento para sentir la maquina, estas observando (vs observando lo que estas haciendo) – dialogo intimo con la maquina)
-> feel thorugh your senses & communicate bs vision of kaleidoscope
me gusto mucho el encuentro, interesante a parte de verlos como trabajan ellos con las maquinas y como fue la colaboracion
desaprender para poder algo nuevo, ex trabajar tu cuerpo, como trabajas la maquina de otra manera de interaccion (Dorothé)

David
nueva
no se por donde empezar/ni por donde terminar
razones demasiado intimista – cuerpo de conjunto antes -> hoy ‘objeto de materia limitada’: autodestruir nosotros, desaprender para construirnos nuevamente (invadido corporalmente – guerra + juego)
quién es el que manipula el cuerpo & interacciones, hasta donde las interacciones & el cuerpo llegan
-> programadores tienen que desparender la maquina para aprender el cuerpo

Dorothé
*le corps ne soit pas esclave de la machine – corps pas seulement execution
