Proudly co-presented by ODC Theater
Welcome to the 4th annual Design for Dance conference. Founded in 2013 by BJ Fogg, PhD at Stanford University, Design for Dance is an annual conference with a mission to catalyze innovation through the idiom of dance. Over the last four years we have studied how to improve health, education, and work through dance.
Agenda
In 2016 we are examining Dance in Technology and how technology has impacted the art and practice of dance, how dance interfaces with augmented and virtual reality, and how technology can enable more people to learn and practice.
Our Presenters include:
--Priya Sheth, Director of Design at Fitbit
--Chris McCarthy, Founder Kaiser Innovation Consultancy
--Robin Zander, Director of Design for Dance
--Kendra Shimmell, Managing Director at Cooper Design
--John Michael Schert, Artist in Residence Chicago Booth
--Sydney Skybetter, dancer and technologist at Brown University
--Darlene Edgley, CEO of Instant Recess
--Anna Botelho, founder of Google Dance
--Jenny Sauer-Klein, founder of Play on Purpose
Day 2: Rapid Prototyping Workshop
Day 2 of the conference will culminate in a 4-hour rapid prototyping workshop. The conference is full of professionals teaching design, design thinking, and how to quickly iterate on an idea. In this final workshop, attendees will work within small groups to apply these principles to themes discovered at the conference. This workshop is an additional opportunity to generate ideas and solutions with fellow attendees and begin projects that often continue beyond the duration of the conference itself.
