[x3d-public] Fwd: Writing Dances from Myanmar/Burma and Thailand

[Joseph D Williams]

Hi John,
If you have a llist of poses and motions that you wish to encode in x3d hanim, then the main idea is to get the model in the standard pose before animation, then take each one of the list of things and develop the skeleton pose for that action, then associate the item with the skeleton pose, then when you want that just call a scpt of table or whatever to tell the skeleton what to do. 
Sounds simple? All needed is list of poses along with sets of positioning of each joint for that item. 

Look for example in the x3d hanim archives and play the example that lets you select between Run and Walk, for example.

May I forward this email to the X3D-public mailing list, where Humanoid Animation (HAnim) ISO standards are discussed? Perhaps there is room for an iconic encoding of HAnim motion? Thanks!

Hello SignWriting List Members!

I am happy to tell you that there are several new developments to share, in SignWriting, DanceWriting and Movement Writing.

First, there are new DanceWriting developments...

Sutton Movement Writing is a large movement notation system that can record any human movement. It started with DanceWriting, which was very active from 1973-1980, and has been waiting quietly in the background for years ;-)

When SignWriting began to grow in the 1980s, our focus turned to SignWriting, since it is the section of the system that is the most used.

So the DanceWriting system has been waiting patiently for writers to become inspired, and for me to choose to focus on it.

In the past few weeks I have been blessed with a new DanceWriting project that started on Facebook by Sutthikhun Pheangphongsai.

Thank you, Sutthikhun, for this beautiful new work:
