La bitácora como herramienta mnemotécnica en la creación y educación de danza contemporánea

Abstract

Abstract: The processes within contemporary dance contain diverse edges in which each dancer discovers during his or her training journey. This leads to constant questioning of the forms, means and words used to record this journey as a potential mnemonic tool in pedagogy, being a means of connection and body record for him or her. This leads to a rethinking in dance and the importance of the logs as a pedagogical tool within the training and creation, having the body as an integral being within this registration process; it learns, works, creates and transforms from different tonalities that remain as an archive and memory within a notebook. Therefore, we analyze dancers' logs in three stages of development to understand this experience as a transmission of knowledge in their training processes that can transcend in a personal but also collective-shared way, thus being an archive of technical information and methodological transformation through mnemonics.
