Life Forms links

The roots of Life Forms are in dance and movement choreography. However, movement is the language of expression in many different worlds, and as the evolution continues, Life Forms is used in many different applications!

Merce Cunningham has been extending the frontiers of choreography for more than half a century, most recently with his use of the computer program Life Forms. Each work he has choreographed since 1991 makes use of this program, and each is quite different from the others. Recently, Merce purchased a Macintosh Notebook for working with Life Forms while traveling. He has since discovered that he can also use his notebook for word processing!

 

Life Forms in AlphaWorld (tm)
A Wedding in AlphaWorlds by Contact Consortium

More than 100,000 people have already become citizens of AlphaWorld, a vibrant, three-dimensional, interactive online community from Worlds Inc.-the company responsible for pioneering new levels of multi-user, three-dimensional interactivity to the World Wide Web. Life Forms is being used by Worlds Inc. and worldbuilders to create animated avatars in AlphaWorlds. Check out their demo and third party creations.

 

CONTACT with Life Forms

The Contact Consortium was born out of CONTACT: Cultures of the Imagination, a fifteen year old organization which has engaged anthropologists, space scientists, fiction writers and others in pioneering exercises simulating human contact with other intelligences. The Contact Consortium was formed to become a focus for the theme of human culture and contact in digital space. Since then the Consortium has explored many digital worlds such as: Digital Mixer Party in AlphaWorlds (tm); TheU (A World Virtual University Project); and Sherwood Forest Community Project (an online town). The most recent project is the Burgess Shale and Digital Cambrian Project. Life Forms is the tool used to animate gestures of avatars in the projects.
