Many people relax when coding is introduced as a language, rather than math. Even if someone creates alone, the technology involved in the process has already been developed by somebody else. Even one person's business requires professional input from others, and collaborations are often performed online. This book mixes experiences in art, coding, music, dance, choreography, video, and stage design.
Dances have unique structures and so do computer codes. In both disciplines, steps are applied following patterns, and are guided by rules and restrictions. The rules obey conditions. The Dance Code script aims to make coding less feared by readers when talking with coders on the job and typing better prompts when using artificial intelligence. In this book, a dramatized, choreographed story unfolds technical information about coding and dancing.
The Dance Code script tells the story of an online interaction between a coder and a prima ballerina, resulting in a shared understanding of their respective fields. An exchange between a coder and a dancer may inspire new ways to look at visually presenting knowledge through dancing, performing, or choreographed movement. Hence, the audience learns without studying.
It is a part of the “Knowledge Through the Arts” series, consisting of:
Dance Code - Dance Steps as a Code
New Storytelling - Learning Through Metaphors
Code Appreciation - Reshaping Knowledge
Nature Appreciation - Knowledge as Art
