/ interactive movement animation

Gifoskop is an experiment that manifests the relations between what is perceived as the basic elements of dance: locomotion, composition and its visuality. It is also an analytic means for communicating dance procedures between dancers and non-dancers. Gifoskop enables the non-dancing body to animate its creative and performative mechanisms in dancing.

Gifoskop is an interactive animation-motoric installation which reanimates movement/dance and returns it to its space-time/performative medium.
As a trace/excerpt of a movement, gif signifies the interupted body-space position which is, in a way, the origin of movement that is animated in order to create an illusion of movement/dance.
Gif also communicates information that the dancer uses in creating and performing a movement / dance, which the visitor adopts and performs in the act of reanimating movement.
