Abstract

Today, intangible cultural properties like ballet and dance have been a target of digital archiving. Our laboratory is developing comprehensive data processing system to input, describe, record, search, and display human body movement. This system can record and reenact human body movement using the data format based on Labanotation, which has been used for recording human movement of dance with several types of graphical symbols. This paper describes LabanEditor, which is an interactive graphical editor for writing and editing Labanotation scores. By using LabanEditor, a user can input and edit human body movement of dance and also display animation of a human body model in 3D graphics.
