uring the last decade a small but burgeoning group of people in the international community of choreographers, performers, and media artists began to experiment with computer-assisted work linking dance and new technologies. A mail list was put in place (http://art.net/-dtz/), and a growing network of collaborative media projects triggered contentious internet debates about emerging definitions of "virtual" or "digital" dance. The strong interest among dancemakers in new media hardly came as a surprise, since dance-on-film and videodance had attracted considerable attention in the 80s, especially as choreographers, companies, researchers, and teachers began to use video as a vital means of documenting/promoting work or analyzing existing choreographies. Furthermore, some scholars and software programmers had published tools (LabanWriter, LifeForms) that attracted attention in the field of dance notation and preservation as well as among choreographers (e.g., Merce Cunningham) who wanted to utilize the computer for the invention and visualization of new movement possibilities.
