Mask Dance and
Visual Art Collaboration, U. de Chile - REUNA -
and Digital Worlds May 17, 2004
On May 17, 2004 the University of Florida's Digital Worlds Institute
collaborated with the Universitaria
Nacional (REUNA) in Santiago de Chile and the New
World School of the Arts (NWSA) in Miami for a three-minute
intercontinental collaborative dance performance. This experience
involved four dancers, one couple in Chile (dancing live in an auditorium
during the opening ceremony of the fourth International Meeting
"Science, Culture and Education on the Research and Development
Network") and the other couple in the USA, performing a collaborative
choreography, using chroma key technology and MPEG2 over IP running
in real time over the Internet2 network.
