A Conference Presentation at Transnet - Performing Art Performing Science Conference: Transdisciplinary Approaches to Performance

Presented at Simon Fraser University (SFU) in Burnaby, BC, with live interactive video connections to The National Research Council (NRC), Ottawa, Canada

This was delivered as an improvised dance and interactive performance between SFU and NRC in two video feedback streams that are going back and forth across Canada… Ottawa-Burnaby-Ottawa-Burnaby etc. The talk proposes that understanding your body the way a dancer can lead to a more effective Human Computer Interface Design of large scale collaborative environments.

I also designed, built and operated the Access Grid environment in Ottawa for NRC Researchers.
