![]() ![]() For the scope of this examina tion, this thesis develops a conceptualisation of the notating and annotating action as the gestures of notating and annotating. By addressing Vilém Flusser and Nicolas Salazar Sutil’s theories, this thesis proposes that notation systems be critically examined according to their medium specificity and, consequently, the material conditions of movement representation they provide. Specifically, this thesis approaches dance notation and annotation practices as gestures–gestures that promptly shape modes of thinking. Asking what the main differences are based on, it investigates the impact that technological conditions have on the representation of movement. Accordingly, this thesis is concerned with the different methods of notation and annotation practices as well as with their effect on the ways we think about movement. ![]() ![]() This thesis critically compares dance notation systems and annotation practices, explaining why we might want to look more closely at their technological conditions and how we may do so by drawing from media theory. ![]()
