 Victoria
Uris: Choreographer and Videographer
(CD-ROM) Currently designed to run on Mac OS 9
The second edition of the interactive
CD-ROM Victoria
Uris: Choreographer and Videographer is now available. When first created, the CD served as the
exemplar for the award-winning Ohio State University Multimedia
Dance Prototype-a content concept and software shell designed
for documenting dance artists with CD-ROM technology.
The CD is an innovative educational tool which documents and
presents the work of Victoria Uris through the perspectives
of dance history, criticism, videodance, modes of collaboration,
analysis, and documentation. It was developed (1993-96) by
a team of researchers: content by Vera Maletic and Candace
Feck, and technology by Scott Sutherland, A.William Smith,
and Joukje Kolff. Major funding was provided by the National
Initiative to Preserve American Dance (NIPAD), and also supported
by The Ohio State University Department of Dance.
This interactive CD-ROM contains 315 screenfills that may
feature any of 195 photographs, 31 illustrations (diagrams,
tables, dance score excerpts), 82 QuickTime movies (over 73
minutes worth), and 36 audio excerpts (totaling over 27 minutes).
The second edition, © 2000, has a Read Me file that includes
general information about this CD-ROM and suggested strategies
for viewing it in various educational contexts, written by
Candace Feck and Vera Maletic. Victoria Uris has also contributed
an updated Artist's Statement.
