Project: The Art of Computer Science. Phase I<\/p>\n

We developed two site to accompany the project \u00a0arrastre.org for the [arra]stre performance & data visualisations and the education site theartofcs.org<\/p>\n

There are 2 sides to this project one involving a live performance and the other a site for sharing and documenting the educational side of the \u00a0project. \u00a0They are Live Performance “Arrastre” and the artofcs website<\/p>\n

\n

Arrastre: is a digital data driven dance performance that derives its movements and concepts from computer science theory. A live performance, plus a series of workshops breaking down the computer science theory behind the performance, will constitute the whole programme. The programme will include data visualisation, images influenced and triggered by data from the dancers, wearable technology and choreography. The work will interpret computer science theories through dance, relating the programme to the new Computing curriculum for schools in England; devising a new methodology that could be applied as a cross-curricular approach for learning. It is with great thanks to\u00a0Arts Council England’s Grants for the Arts Award\u00a0for the supporting this project.<\/a><\/p>\n

A recording of the live performance is available here\u00a0http:\/\/www.datadrivendance.org\/arrastre\/event.html<\/a><\/p>\n

The site will consist of videos, ‘recipes’, links to the curriculum UK and others. We are hoping to make it a playground that the user can explore based on what they are looking for. Be it a particular curriculum element, type of sensor or specific piece of kit. We are very excited about be able to share all of resources including the code. \u00a0This has only be made possible because of being one of\u00a0Google RISE Award winners for 2014<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
