Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The outcomes of this project include following through with the two workshops, rehearsals, works in progress and have three performances, getting at least 300 individuals to attend our performances, and also making this work portable so that it can be presented in other spaces. There is constant evaluation built into the research and development of this work. As part of any community engagement activity we will have a survey available for audiences to fill out to understand the demographics of our audiences. We will be video documenting our audience discussions and all workshops and events. We will have a post process evaluation meeting with all collaborators to assess the artistic process.

Measurable Outcome(s)

In terms of the outcomes of the project, 56% of the surveys commented on the combination of the technology, music and dance and their relationship thereby responding to the interdisciplinary nature of the work and the impact of that witnessing.
