Animals and Algorithms: Coding & Choreography

Moving MattersKC - Harlan Brownlee

 

Inspired by the flora and fauna of the earth’s biomes students explore the sequential nature of computers and coding. Starting with a creative movement activity, students explore one of the earth’s biomes and then working in small groups, students create a short simple sequential “habitats dance” that duplicates the structure and form of an algorithm.  Biomes offered for this workshop are:  

 

  • The Tropical Rainforest
  • The Southwestern Desert
  • The African Savanna
  • The Wetlands

 

Available as a single workshop or as a multi-workshop residency.
