movement for possible avatar duet

animation made in 3ds from excerpt of 2 motion capture files of the same person. part of Real Virtual Games project, recording states of embodiment and interaction. These were in part uploaded into Second Life for avatar movement. The movements modes or sequences functioned as alternative animations for avatar, based not in music based dance steps or pedestrian actions, but on ways of sensing the body in movement, or as when interacting with other bodies or things, much like in contact improvisation. Available to any avatar visiting the RVG Lx Factory SL room, they could improvise with each other in virtual dances choosing the body modes and their play in time and space with each other. To have a better idea, please see the other examples. Soon there will be recordings from the SL dances with visiting avatars. Real Virtual Games is continuing this way and projected as a new solo performance with live and virtual performance participants.
