Conception et développement d’un système d’analyse, de notation, et de génération de footwork

Drawing on his experience with house dance, Cassiel Gaube focuses this research on footwork: a complex and abstract fabric of locomotive movements that forms the lexical foundation of most traditional rural and contemporary urban dances. He begins by attempting to identify the variables—parameters—that define this class of movements. This analytical work then leads to the formalization of rating tools that make it possible to describe these movements as a function of the identified variables.
