note = "Collaborations must encompass a much broader range of disciplines. For example, roboticist Heather Knight at Oregon State University in Corvallis works with actors to capture variations in their movement to drive expressive robotic systems. At Emory University, biomedical engineer Lena Ting and movement scientist Madeleine Hackney are working across science and arts disciplines to understand gait and rehabilitation, funded by the US National Science Foundation{\textquoteright}s Mind, Machine and Motor Nexus programme. But these crosscutting efforts will fail unless they embrace an equal partnership with qualitative, embodied and artistic practice. We need to honour the expertise of dancers and movement analysts, and craft canonical problems in expression together.",
