A message to all members of dance-tech.net Hello network, this is Marlon, the network producer and I would like to welcome the new members. We are quickly approaching three hundreds members that are geographically dispersed and with diverse interests and practices; therefore is it very important that we explore possibility of using groups, discussions and comments as a way to fully exploit the potential of the platform. Remember you can update your profile as cool showcase of your work, blog or re-blog about your activities, upload videos, photos and music. Of course, you have the possibility of interact leaving comments for other members posts, videos and photos. Events....very important! I posted today an interview with the artist Michelle Ellsworth. I experimented with a new approach to the interview presentation: I used the video sharing platform Viddler that allows you to make video comments and create links in the time line of the video. So, I linked her supporting video material to the time line of the interview (hover over the dots). You can also leave comments in the video as text or as video directly with your webcam...Very cool!
