    Abstract

    This paper outlines progress so far on an AHRC-funded project led by researchers at Coventry University to create a digital archive of the work of British choreographer, Siobhan Davies. The paper will discuss how the processes involved in translating the ‘live’ or the analogue recording to the digitised have raised questions around the nature of representation and the curatorial process. In working collaboratively with Davies and her company, the methods being employed are aiming to make clear the ‘living’ nature of the archive, thereby opening up new possibilities for the digital interface with dance and dance making
