Abstract

The arts are an arena in which the body is central to the process of inquiry and indeed constitutes a mode of knowing. In a traditional academic setting, engineering and the arts are considered separate fields. This dance project aims to bridge the gap between these fields and between academia and wider society through a participatory approach to expressing engineering knowledge. Participants were invited to convey the knowledge, and viewers were entertained by academic information presented in an alternative medium. This chapter outlines the approach taken to produce the film, from initial conception of the idea to planning and filming.
