Abstract

In this paper will propose to outline the collective dance consciousness into a dance ontology. The creation of a dance ontology would allow for a more informed and productive academic discourse, as well as the opportunity to expand ideas to an international stage. This concretization of knowledge will elevate the study of dance history, theory and performance to a higher level of discourse, allowing comparison and conceptual synthesis with more frequency and ease. By utilizing the sophisticated structure of semantic web based ontologies, the dance world can maintain minutia while simultaneously expediting its discussion. Through the following exploration of the construction of an open-access dance ontology, the similarities between dance, which utilizes people as its medium, and information science, which utilizes binary as its medium, will come to the surface and subsequently shed light on how data-based discussion can help advance dance as an academic discipline.

LMA, initially developed by Laban, includes a multidisciplinary approach (Labanotation, Psychology, Kinesiology, Anatomy and others still) to evaluate movement by considering spectrums of exertion, expression, expansion, and mobility. The major components of LMA are Body, Effort, Shape and Space. Bartenieff Fundamentals, developed by Irmgard Bartenieff as an extension of LMA, focuses on a deep analysis of the LMA aspect of ‘body’.

In John Chapman’s article on aesthetic interpretation, he described the historian’s trials succinctly, claiming the chronological style of written history leads to “the idea that the historian is specially suited to assess historical significance.” This only exasperates the problem that historians are “so convinced of the validity of [their] own aesthetic that it is extremely hard to see that its validity is only relative.” I concede, just as Chapman did, that “it is necessary to simplify,” but there needs to be a way to simplify without burdening dance history with the idiosyncrasies of the author and making these idiosyncrasies into elements of the event being catalogued [17].
