DV Theater Language Player Demo V1: A Play as a Living Score

Image
  DV Theater Language Player Demo V1: A Play as a Living Score I have been developing the DV Language ecosystem as a way to describe time-based arts through readable, synchronized language. Much of the development so far has focused on DV Music Language and its related players, composers and learning tools. The new DV Theater Language Player Demo V1 begins applying the same larger idea to theatre. The demo can be explored here: Open the DV Theater Language Player Demo V1 Theatre Is More Than Dialogue A play is not only a written script. It is a coordinated performance involving many simultaneous elements: Dialogue and vocal expression Acting, gestures and physical movement Positions and movement across the stage Entrances, exits and interactions between characters Scenery, lighting, sound, music, costumes and props Timing, pauses, transitions and changes between scenes The DV Theater Language Player treats these elements as parts of one synchronized theatrical score.

From Music to Movement: Introducing the DV Classical Dance Language Player Demo V1

  From Music to Movement: Introducing the DV Classical Dance Language Player Demo V1 Over the past period, I have been developing the DV Language ecosystem : a growing family of languages and digital tools for writing, creating, playing and understanding time-based arts. Most of this work has so far been concentrated on DV Music Language . Around it, I have developed an expanding ecosystem of players, composers, runners, learning tools and other experiments. Each of these projects explores the same central idea: music can be represented in a textual and intuitive form while remaining connected to rhythm, duration, instruments, performance and traditional musical notation. Now, this work is beginning to expand from music into movement. The DV Classical Dance Language Player Demo V1 is an early player for the dance dimension of the DV Language ecosystem. It explores how classical dance can be written, visualized and synchronized with music inside a unified digital environment. Open ...

DV Music Language Player & Tutor

DV Music Language Player & Tutor Read It. Hear It. See It. Play It. By Ronen Kolton Yehuda — MKR, Messiah king RKY DV MUSIC LANGUAGE PLAYER DEMO v1 DV Music Language Player & Tutor is a proposed interactive music-learning product designed around DV Music Language notation, its visual layer, synchronized playback, and interactive instrument interfaces. The idea is to create an environment where musicians can open a song, solo composition, band arrangement or ensemble work and do much more than simply read its notation. They can read it, hear it, see it and play it. In some ways, the product can be compared with the idea behind software such as Guitar Pro: music becomes playable, navigable and useful for practice. But DV Music Language Player & Tutor would approach this through the DV Music Language system, combining textual musical information, time, sound, visualization and instrument-specific interaction. Music You Can Explore Imagine opening a complete song perfo...

Lion City: Lionman, the Lioness-Women, the New Prophecy, and the Kingdom of the Future

Lion City: Lionman, the Lioness-Women, the New Prophecy, and the Kingdom of the Future By Ronen Kolton Yehuda (MKR: Messiah King RKY) I love Batman and the great tradition of superhero mythology. The idea of a masked figure, a symbol, a city, technology, danger, and justice has always been powerful to me. But from the beginning, I also understood that Lionman cannot be only a variation of Batman. If this idea ever becomes a comic, movie, TV series, game, or illustrated universe, it must stand as its own original creation. So the concept changed. Lionman is not a dark vigilante in a crime city. He is not a billionaire hero with a cave, a butler, a sidekick, and a special car. Lionman belongs to another world completely. Lionman is a king. He is the lion of Lion City — a future Jerusalem rising from the ancient City of David into a royal, technological, prophetic, and intergalactic capital. This is not only a superhero story. It is the story of a kingdom. From Superhero to Kingd...
