Sverm: Motion capture of human micromotion during standstill (umbrella record)

This is an umbrella record for the artistic-research project Sverm (fourMs Lab, University of Oslo), in which musicians and dancers stood still on the floor for six to ten minutes at a time, and once for fifteen while their micromotion was tracked with a Qualisys infrared system. This deposit holds no motion capture of its own: the constituent records are deposited separately and are each self-contained. Sverm is the foundational study in the Oslo Standstill Database, later scaled up into the public Championship of Standstill. Record names are recording dates from the Qualisys file headers, not the project's own later folder numbering, which does not line up with the publication years. The umbrella carries a collection-wide recordings index flagging, for every recording, whether the task was standing still and whether a head marker is present. These two filters are necessary for any cross-corpus comparison.
