The UA Campus Repository is experiencing systematic automated, high-volume traffic (bots). Temporary mitigation measures to address bot traffic have been put in place; however, this has resulted in restrictions on searching WITHIN collections or using sidebar filters WITHIN collections. You can still Browse by Title/Author/Year WITHIN collections. Also, you can still search at the top level of the repository (use the search box at the top of every page) and apply filters from that search level. Export of search results has also been restricted at this time. Please contact us at any time for assistance - email repository@u.library.arizona.edu.

dc.description.abstractThis thesis is a research project undertaken in order to develop a personal process of choreography. As a dance major at a university with a heavy emphasis on choreography, I feel it is important to identify and develop my own choreographic process. I am trying to find my own voice as a choreographer, so I am testing different recognized methods of movement creation in order to develop a process. Each semester, fall and spring, I choreographed separate pieces that were driven by a different process. Fall semester I choreographed driven by instinctual creation; spring semester I choreographed driven by premeditated creation. Throughout each process, I kept detailed journals on what choreographic tools and techniques I used to develop each piece. The largest products of my research were the two dances created, so the bulk of my thesis is videos of my dances. However, I wanted to document the processes to learn which techniques worked and which didn't. To close out my time here at the university, I will choreograph a solo using the information gathered from my research.
