Dance has always been a fascination of mine because it’s all about the form and style of communication expressed via human movement. The informational content of a butoh performance, or some kids turfing, or a Bollywood movie, is so deep and rich that at times it seems incomprehensible. It’s great to finally see some research into the visualization of it from the folks as Synchronous Objects. Check out their site for a range of interactive flash-based experiences that explore dance.

The Synchronous Objects team was recently features in the NYTimes in this article. It’s worth a read. In other interactive dance related news, the NYTimes also recently covered Nice Cave’s (not the singer) creations - insane wearable sculptures that create movements of sight and sound.
