New office, new adventures! 🤠

All is packed up now, as you can see in the picture. Just a bit over 3 years since I joined Loughborough University in 2014, it's time to leave my old W2.61 office and move to a new, exciting location! 😀 Starting from tomorrow (well, technically today, as it's just past 2AM now) these are my new contact info: Michael Pearson East, LP1.1.05 Sports Technology Institute Wolfson School of Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering Loughborough University Loughborough, Leics LE11 3TU, UK Tel: +44 (0)1509 227122 Sports tech, here I come! 😀

📝 Towards semiotically driven empirical studies of ballet as a communicative form 📝

This paper explores the use of dance as a way to communicate through movement, using classical ballet as an example. It examines how different approaches, such as linguistics, communication studies, and social semiotics, can be used to understand dance as a form of communication. The paper also discusses the use of technology, specifically motion capture technology, to track and study the physical movements of dance. It suggests that this approach can be used to better understand the relationship between movement and the meaning of dance, and can inform future research on the subject. The paper presents a specific method for studying ballet in this way and suggests how it can be applied to other forms of dance as well. You can read the paper on nature.com , and watch a couple of related videos on vimeo. Real-time FGD Concept video

Now, everywhere you turn there is a restaurant, a bistro, a Japanese-Lebanese fusion. Everywhere there is a pavement there are tables and chairs, and people eating and drinking. Virgil says it's all the fault of the so-called new system: when we were studying, to pass exams you had to study, not collect marks. Then came the new system, the three plus two, the credits. Courses went from being formative to informative. The right to study became the right to a degree. And students from then on had time and the will to go out every evening, not just on Fridays. In short, I enrolled in university a few decades too early. And there I was, in Borgo Stretto, trying t...
