Exercise in Pedagogy: Story of the Bones
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 January 2013
Abstract
I was commissioned by Kim Nofsinger to make a dance for students at Middle Tennessee State University that explored the African American experience. The creative process integrated historical and bio-archaeological research being conducted by Dr. Shannon Chappell Hodge and Dr. Kevin E. Smith from the Department of Sociology and Anthropology. In this paper I will discuss the methodology I used to develop a creative process that involved the intersection of African American history, bio-archeological physical evidence, ritual exploration, and performance. This repertory experience represents how interdisciplinary relationships involving research, choreography, pedagogy, ritual, and performance can be imagined.
