Objective
This project investigates how integrating expressive, extra-musical body movement into musical practice enhances both artistic performance and personal wellbeing. Using a dual-method approach, the study examines how sound-movement collaboration expands creative capabilities: first, by employing motion capture to analyze how musicians co-develop movement vocabulary with other performing artists in interdisciplinary settings; and second, by evaluating how participatory sound-gesture exercises improve creativity, engagement, relationships, and accomplishment among non-specialists, using Seligman’s PERMA model as a wellbeing framework.
By translating advanced artistic practices into accessible, participatory frameworks, the project bridges professional performance methodologies and community-oriented applications. It aims to produce both a theoretical model of embodied sound-movement interaction and practical tools that empower musicians and non-specialists alike to explore sound through expressive gesture. This approach addresses a critical gap in contemporary performer training—where movement, technology, and theatrical expression are increasingly required but poorly supported by evidence-based methods—while extending the benefits of embodied creativity to the wellbeing of non-specialist adults.
The project’s integration of kinematic analysis and wellbeing metrics offers a novel perspective on how embodied expression supports both artistic innovation and mental wellbeing. By closing the research-practice divide in interdisciplinary performance, it provides scalable strategies for enhancing creative collaboration and supporting mental health through movement-based engagement.
