Session Abstract

The SMT’s Dance and Movement Interest Group (DMIG) and Performance and Analysis Interest Group (PAIG) are hosting a joint session featuring lightning talks, roundtable discussion, and open time for socializing among interest group members.

Following a brief business meeting, the program will consist of the following lightning talks:

Nate Mitchell, “Dancing with Death: Choreomusical Cueing in Dark Souls Boss Fights”

Ash Mach, “Effort and Tension in Rebecca Saunders's Dialogue for Viola and Percussion (2011)”

Amy Ming Wai Tai, “Physical and Psychological Spaces in Dance and Music”

A brief Q&A period will immediately follow each talk. After the third talk, space will be opened for general/roundtable Q&A and discussion. The final 30 minutes of the session will be dedicated to informal socializing among interest group members. We hope you will join us!
