Here's a note just received from Marlon Solano..which we offered to post for the REALNEO community to build connectivity and new opportunities for art in NEO. I've suggested they link to NEO online communities and other communities such as SmallerIndiana.com to leverage resources and capabilities focused around mutual interests...
This is Marlon Barrios Solano from dance-tech.net
I am an independent dance/new media artist and on-line publisher based in NYC.
I want to introduce you to this project.
I created dance-tech.net 8 months ago and it has grown to more than 250 international members and a broad base of visitors from performance and new media communities.
It is a social network that aggregates and facilitates the flow of information and the distributed intelligence among movement, new media artist and theorists working in the confluence of embodied performance practices and new media.
This is the url of network:

I also produce videos netcasts with a focus on creative processes, innovation and news.

Dance-tech.net and its netcasts has been enabled by its institutional friends Eyebeam, Dance Thater Workshop in NYC and STEIM/The Waag Society in Amsterdam.

I've been keeping an eye on dance-tech.net for a few months now, since becoming interested in using our wireless movement disorder sensors at CleveMed in dance performance -- after we measured motion and EMG from CIM musicians at Ingenuity last year.
I liked what Chunky Move was doing enough to write half a blog entry about them in February and not publish it. Actually, I liked them a lot more than that, but I'm not a very good blogger.
Here are a couple more Chunky Move vids on YouTube:
