Dan, I look forward to your upcoming book on Interactive Gestures.
I think that there are two different questions here:
1) Putting aside the difficulty and complexity of various movement
notation systems for a moment: As we move from basic implementations
of multitouch (e.g., Mac mousepad) to mor

I haven't studied Labanotation (yet!) but I have studied Alexander
technique and dance. In my experience, most people without training
in movement do not really have a conscious understanding of what
their body is doing in space. So, if you were going to build
something based on a deep-understandin

Yet, I can find very few instances where a somatic or movement analysis
