Amy LaViers works at the intersection of robotics and dance. Her work has been presented in arts, engineering, and science venues, including Nature, Merce Cunningham’s studios, Joe’s Pub at the Public Theater, the Performance Arcade, Berkeley, Princeton, and Georgia Tech. She runs the Robotics, Automation, and Dance Lab, a Philadelphia-based nonprofit for art-making, commercialization, education, outreach, and research. Catherine (Cat) Maguire is a movement educator and dance artist. She has been teaching in the Laban/Bartenieff Movement System for over 40 years and works as a faculty member of WholeMovement, a coterie of movement analysts working together to promote movement studies globally.
