The word choreography comes from Greek and most commonly refers to dance movement (in the sense, 'written notation of dancing'). Conceptually speaking, choreography is about symbolically designing movement in time and space. But what does it mean in practice? Can the skill of choreography be applied to design and, more specifically to ideation, say, sketching? While choreographers often “invent” new ways of moving, choreography transcends movements, and gives them meaning. Similarly, the sketch, as written notation, expresses and communicates ideas and give them meaning. And so, designers, like choreographers think about all aspects of the task in hand and whether guided by improvisation or based on a brief. In this pursuit, designers and choreographers alike use a broad and varied range of means, from traditional techniques to experimenting with AI technologies. Regarding choreography as the art of planned movement, choreography is everywhere where movement happens. That is, choreography, in the age of AI embraces places, spaces and setting thereby reinventing stage performance and extending the audience experience. Indeed, theatrical experiences are a classic happening. And so, in its many forms and iterations, choreography, and sketching can be conceived both as dialectical practice and performance that, though disruptive in character, is constructive in outcome gesturing towards a state of being-without-limit. https://www.dance-masterclass.com/blog/what-does-a-choreographer-do
