Contraespaços: criação coreológica em dança e a arquitetura de Zaha Hadid é fruto de uma pesquisa em dança que teve como ponto de partida e inspiração a obra da arquiteta Zaha Hadid. O processo foi informado pelos conceitos de imaginação espacial, imaginação corporal e imaginação de movimento, cruzando, principalmente, os autores Rudolf Laban, Gaston Bachelard e Maxine Sheets-Johnstone, e seguiu as abordagens metodológicas da Prática como Pesquisa e da Pesquisa Guiada pela Prática. O processo artístico — a investigação coreográfica Contraespaço — guiou e agenciou a pesquisa, colocando em relação transversal os Estudos Coreológicos, estudos da dança, arquitetura...

The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.

The interlock is all." The interlock is what this book explores from the choreographer and performers' perspective with every genre in contemporary dance theatre in mind. Written for practical people in dance, the text is organised in 32 short chapters each addressing a question on the way in which choreographers might or might not engage with their audiences in dance theatre works. The topics include an introduction to communication theory and the way in which the interlocking network between pe...

'Choreutics' can be said to contain the essence of Laban's thought as well as an elaboration of the framework which he found useful for the penetration of the bewildering complexity of human movement. This he based on the unity of space and movement and he recognised a natural order in which the energy from within unfolds in space.
