Unsquare Dance is an experience in Interactive Digital Art and Contemporary Dance. It was realized in December of 2007 at IMPA - Instituto de Matematica Pura e Aplicada in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil by Luiz Velho, Analivia Cordeiro, Alice Bodanzky, Julio Lucio Martins and Ilana Paterman. This experience included a series of dance performances based on a choreography of Analivia Cordeiro and real-time interaction with the system "X-Motion" developed at the VISGRAF Laboratory / IMPA. The title of the work comes from the music "Unsquare Dance" by Dave Brubeck. The piece consists of a live performance by Analivia Cordeiro in a dynamic stage composed of projected computer graphics elements. The X-Motion system captures the trajectories of points in the dance performer's body and generates motion paths which produce dynamic graphics by procedural visual rules. The whole experience was recorded in a series of videos with different graphic interpretations.
