Dance Research, Ownership, & WORLD PREMIERE Of Brooke's New Film!

Notes and time-codes by Hetty Blades: If you would like access to the audio described version of 'As Within So Without' please contact Hetty Blades: [email protected] (03:10) Moving Online is funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council [grant number AH/W01002X/1]. https://movingonline.coventry.domains/The partners are One Dance UK https://www.onedanceuk.org/ and Sadler’s Wells https://www.sadlerswells.com/ (05:37) These kinds of questions are explored in a branch of philosophy called ‘ontology’. There has been a lot written about dance ontology. For example, Anna Pakes’s book Choreography Invisible (2020). https://global.oup.com/academic/product/choreography-invisible-9780199988228?lang=en&cc=us This page includes a blog by Hetty Blades (in 3 parts) that explores the overlap between ontology and ownership and includes references to more texts in both areas: https://movingonline.coventry.domains/outputs-3/ (06:27) For more about the Centre for Dance Research (C-DaRE) at Coventry University, please see here:https://www.coventry.ac.uk/research/areas-of-research/centre-for-dance-research/ (15:00) For more information about some of the existing work in the areas of dance and copyright, the circulation of dance through social norms and the overlap of copyright and philosophy, please see ‘ontology and ownership’ (in 3 parts) on this page: https://movingonline.coventry.domains/outputs-3/ and the reference list: https://movingonline.coventry.domains/references/ (15:20) See Bench (2020) and Boffone (2021) re the role of credit within dance communities. Bench: https://dhjhkxawhe8q4.cloudfront.net/minup-wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/16153547/Bench_9781452962481.pdf Boffone: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/renegades-9780197577684?cc=us&lang=en& (23:19) This blog post includes reference to some of the writing that explores the implications of the distinction in US copyright law between ‘choreographic works’ and ‘social dances and simple routes’: https://movingonline.coventry.domains/ontology-and-ownership-part-three/ (23:57) The nature of ‘dance works’ is explored by Pakes in Choreography Invisible (2020): https://academic.oup.com/book/36935 (24:33) Rather than ‘repeatable’, the work needs to be “capable of being performed” (Whatley, Waelde, Brown and Harmon, 2015: 70, ‘Validation and virtuosity: Perspectives on difference and authorship/control in dance.’) : https://intellectdiscover.com/content/journals/10.1386/chor.6.1.59_1 (26:44) Writing in 2015, Whatley, Waelde, Brown and Harmon point out that since 1911 there have been three cases in the UK “where dance has been judicially considered” (Whatley, Waelde, Brown and Harmon, 2015: 70, ‘Validation and virtuosity: Perspectives on difference and authorship/control in dance.’): https://intellectdiscover.com/content/journals/10.1386/chor.6.1.59_1 (30:48) Thank you to Julie C. Van Camp whose work on dance, copyright and philosophy has been very important and who made a similar point about prohibitive costs and limited case law during a Q and A at the American Society of Aesthetics Eastern meeting in 2024 (31:14) For more on the possible commercial benefits of copyright exploitation, see Pavis, Waelde and Whatley (2017) ‘Who can profit from dance?: An exploration of copyright ownership’: https://www.euppublishing.com/doi/10.3366/drs.2017.0185 (53:55) Harmony Bench’s book Perpetual Motion (2020) is available here: https://dhjhkxawhe8q4.cloudfront.net/minup-wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/16153547/Bench_9781452962481.pdf Trevor Boffone’s Renegades (2021) also discusses the issues that can arise when dance moves from one community into another context: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/renegades-9780197577684?cc=us&lang=en& (01:16:00) You can find more about Charlotte Waelde’s work here: https://pureportal.coventry.ac.uk/en/persons/charlotte-waelde/publications/ The Space’s Digital Rights Toolkit is a helpful resource regarding rights when sharing online: https://www.thespace.org/resource/the-spaces-digital-rights-toolkit/ #brookemilliner #aswithinsowithout #hettyblades #dance #copyright #podcast #coventryuniversity #lukelentes #thecapsule #thecapsuleldn
