choreotext

The notion of choreotext, literally "text of dance" is a neologism that was first introduced by the philosopher Arianna Beatrice Fabbricatore in her epistemological research on dance. "It designates the moving silk engaged by the dancer when he puts into action the choreographic writing. " This term has become a concept by which one can study the specificity of the dance action as a text. The "choreotext" neologism is based on the idea that the notion of text (considered as a discursive unit whose "materiality" or "substance" can vary according to the language used can be applied not only to messages of a verbal nature but also to "silks" of other kinds: iconographic, choreographic, musical, etc. Thus, the "choreotext" refers to the fabric of choreographic writing and corresponds to the intersemiotic translation of the "logotext", namely the verbal text that describes the dance action.
