Move-me.com

The award winning Katrina McPherson and Simon Fildes have been collaborating on single screen video dance works for over 10 years and more recently the hyperchoreography.org project, but their latest project MOVE-ME.com combines their individual interests in dance and interactive installations and takes them in a new direction with significant success.

The move-me project was officially launched at the ICA London 16 February 2006 before starting on a year long tour of the UK. The move-me booth is a special video booth touring to theatre foyers, festival venues, arts centres, galleries, universities and dance agencies.  Enter the move-me booth, follow instructions by some of the world's most exciting dance-makers - Rafael Bonachela, Nigel Charnock, Jonzi D, Shobana Jeyasingh, New Art Club, Stephen Petronio, Kirstie Simson and Deborah Hay - and create your own video dance for free. After your visit, you can go to Move-me.com to find your dance on the website, see other people's dances in the ever expanding database.  Register on the site, store your favourites and vote for them if you want.

Move-me is co-produced by Ricochet Dance Productions and Goat Media, from the original idea by Simon Fildes and Katrina McPherson. It is an Arts Council England Capture4 commission, sponsored by Calumet Photographic and co-funded by Scottish Arts Council Lottery Funds, the Moose Foundation, Alt-W, New Media Scotland and Sadlers Wells.

The Move-me.com site has had over 85,000 visitors since February 2006 who have viewed over 280,000 video clips. The UK tour visits over 25 venues to April 2007 including Sadler’s Wells London this month. Check the site for details. Over 3000 people have entered the booth to try it out and 1000 completed video clips have been recorded and are on the website. The website has featured recently at new media arts festival FILE 2006 Sao Paulo, Brasil.
