Her presentation
will outline elements of her composition methods based on the body-machine dialogue in the context of intelligent systems
and interactive and immersive media, with as leitmotiv, how to better grasp the specificity of the body consciousness nuances
inherent to each environment. The artist will address questions related to the processes involved in her past and present
works, such as improvisation-notation, movement analysis, digital visualization, programming rules, and collaborative user
interaction modes.
