Sarah Rubidge
Sarah Rubidge is a freelance Digital Choreographer. Formerly Professor of Choreography and New Media at the University of Chichester (UK), she is a practitioner-scholar who specialises in creating choreographic digital installations. She has collaborated extensively with artists, scientists, geographers, and others on research projects that explored cross-disciplinary approaches, and has worked with artists from Europe, East and South Asia, and Uganda. Her artistic interests range from an interrogation of ideas concerning the ways in which the past and present overlap; the use of haptic interfaces to enhance sensuous responses in digital installations; cultural hybridity in contemporary society; and experimentation with participatory installations that facilitate informal choreographies between visitors and installations, and between visitors and digital performers. Prof. Rubidge’s artistic works, including writings that address the interweaving of conceptual and artistic ideas embodied in her work, have been presented nationally and internationally.
