Peacock dance uses 3 bend arm positions to imitate peacock anatomy, thus this character I am experimenting with constructing the peacock with hands. This would allow for more abstract mannerisms or storytelling where the hands can hold onto things or act independently of the peacock.

Idea for dance transdisciplinary animation
Create a 'dance sequence' from multiple possibilities of movements in a daily routine, somewhat like the animation Ohayo

only to a dance sequence with multiple after images/alternate routine completion creating a dance routine with formations

Lemon Bonking Pappy
My head got bonked on a lemon that was still on the tree when I was either a baby or todler by my pappy. I could see bright yellow lemons and dark green leaves, I could hear Pappy saying “wee” I felt the cold lemon on my forehead, I smelt warm grass, I could taste dirt from when I had my hands on the ground. I wasn't thinking much actively, I was confused but somehow comforted. I felt loved.

I repurposed the animation of water into a paralax scroll of an erupting volcano


My transdisciplinary project I'm considering the art of dance.
Traditional integration of music and beat matching e.g animated music videos
Additional ideas

'Choreograph' the animation. jump cut in place of leaps, loop in place of spins
model each character/animate inanimate objects/shapes into a different 'animal' the same way the Chinese dance (lion dance, peacock dance, dragon dance) attempts to mimic animals
show rough animation as a representation of the rehearsal->dress rehearsal->performance process of dance.
