Departmental Resident Fellows
2010-11

Dance artist Ellen Bromberg works with a variety of technology-based media—from interactive video performance to dance on film to 3D animation and motion capture—to explore the relationship between dance and technology. Hosted by the department of Theater, Dance & Performance Studies while at Berkeley in the spring 2011 semester, Ms. Bromberg delivered a public lecture, “The Space of Dance: Movement, Metaphor and Media,” and led a course on “Creative Inquiry in Media, Movement and Performance.” She also collaborated with TDPS dance program director Lisa Wymore in creating a new performance piece for the Berkeley Dance Project. As a result of Ms. Bromberg’s residency, both faculty and students gained valuable experience using interactive computer programs for performance, developing skills for filming bodies in motion, and learning performance theory through the making of a unique live performance.
