If
97% of young people (in the US) play computer/video games, and 61% play dance games - for example
http://www.konami.jp/bemani/ddr/jp/howtoplay.html - What will be the effect on dance practice? All the research I can see is about weight loss. And I'm just wondering as now these games are being brought into schools to encourage fat kids to exercise.
Has anyone co-opted any of these movements into a performance piece? I would think it would be interesting to play with the ideas of the games outside of the video/arcade experience.
And indeed it would be interesting to know if choreographers are involved in the production of the games.
