Bridging the Digital Grid and Embodied Musicality: A Didactic-Driven 3D Visualization Framework for Bulgarian Folk Dance Education

This presentation, delivered at the 3DBODY.TECH conference, introduces a novel initiative showcasing a digitalized curriculum for Balkan dance folklore based on a polyrhythmic mindset. The author presents a web-native simulation integrating 3D Move.ai software digitization, 3D character creation, and music, bridging the gap between digital grids and embodied musicality. The framework translates traditional movement patterns into structured, interactive digital formats while preserving authentic rhythm, spatial awareness, and stylistic nuances. Furthermore, it addresses systemic bottlenecks in traditional instruction by exploring the deep intersection between the binary von Neumann architecture and polyrhythmic-minded musical and dance materials.
