WEBVTT Kind: captions; language: en-us NOTE Treffsikkerhet: 81% (H?Y) 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:08.500 Hello and welcome to the first wrap-up video of the Motion Capture course. We are super excited 00:00:08.500 --> 00:00:14.100 about getting going and it's very nice to see that several you have already started taking the course. 00:00:14.100 --> 00:00:21.950 I see that many more are starting up. The idea with these wrap-up videos is to 00:00:21.950 --> 00:00:27.600 pick up on some of the questions and comments that you have during the week. So please ask questions 00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:30.250 and we'll try to answer them if we can. NOTE Treffsikkerhet: 81% (H?Y) 00:00:30.250 --> 00:00:37.750 This week I saw that a couple of you asked about some clarification when it comes to Laban 00:00:37.750 --> 00:00:43.100 and the Laban Movement Analysis. The disclaimer should be that I'm not a Laban expert 00:00:43.100 --> 00:00:52.000 myself. I have taken a couple of workshops and read some relevant books. I was 00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:59.000 particularly going to address this question about the Effort categories. 00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:00.849 Within the Space Effort, there is this difference NOTE Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y) 00:01:00.849 --> 00:01:10.600 between indirect and direct, which may be a bit confusing. So I can try to read it here from 00:01:10.600 --> 00:01:17.700 this book, the definition of how it is said there. Here it says that the Space Effort deals with 00:01:17.700 --> 00:01:26.800 how you give attention, but not the place in space. Both direct and indirect approaches to paying attention are active NOTE Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y) 00:01:28.050 --> 00:01:37.600 And indirectness is not the same as being spaced out, or out of space. It is giving attention to 00:01:37.600 --> 00:01:45.300 more than one thing at once. So you could say that the indirect is multi-focused, 00:01:45.300 --> 00:01:54.000 as flexible attention. It's all-around awareness and all-encompassing. The direct is more single-focused 00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:57.550 channelled, pin-pointed, and laser-like. NOTE Treffsikkerhet: 82% (H?Y) 00:01:57.550 --> 00:02:03.800 I'm not sure if that helps but perhaps we have some Laban experts with us here in this course, 00:02:03.800 --> 00:02:12.900 so feel free to explain this better. It was also interesting to see the diversity of the group we 00:02:12.900 --> 00:02:20.400 have with us here and you different interests. Ranging from studies of crayfish, biking and bike-fitting, 00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:27.600 creating virtual reality conducting, walking, and studying music and musicians. NOTE Treffsikkerhet: 88% (H?Y) 00:02:27.600 --> 00:02:32.700 That's a very nice group of people already and I'm sure that more interesting use cases will 00:02:32.700 --> 00:02:37.900 come up in the coming weeks. I also see that there's a lot of good reflections on the 00:02:37.900 --> 00:02:43.000 differences between qualitative and observational approaches and the more quantity ones. 00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:48.700 As we shall see later on as well, what we at the University of Oslo find most fruitful 00:02:48.700 --> 00:02:53.800 is combining these different approaches in various ways. So in most of the studies 00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:57.550 that we do, and will present later on in this course, you will see NOTE Treffsikkerhet: 64% (MEDIUM) 00:02:57.550 --> 00:03:00.400 combinations of the different methods. NOTE Treffsikkerhet: 85% (H?Y) 00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:05.900 But I think that's it for now. This week was fairly short. It's kind of a gentle introduction 00:03:05.900 --> 00:03:11.500 to the topic. Next week, we'll dive straight into anatomy and biomechanics. So that will be 00:03:11.500 --> 00:03:19.100 more of a hardcore session on different terminology; looking at the body and how the body moves, 00:03:19.100 --> 00:03:25.300 which is very important to be able to understand more about how to capture the body in 00:03:25.300 --> 00:03:30.200 different ways. So, see you again next week.
