DANCE vocabulary of expressive qualities of movement: the collaboration with the choreographer Virgilio Sieni

A project on the study and multimodal recordings of a repository of expressive movement qualities started in 2015. This resulted in a repository of multimodal recordings of motion capture, accelerometers, video, and audio data of Virgilio (February and May 2015).
Virgilio Sieni multimodal repository Casa Paganini-InfoMus consists of about 150 dance fragments on expressive qualities of movement. An example of "frailty" and lightness" qualities is shown in the following figure:
