ANST - On Documenting Dance

[Gunnora Hallakarva]

This is a slightly different view of documentation.  As the Ansteorran Laurels
discovered in trying to develop judging forms, static arts and performance arts need
separate judging forms.  Here are some thoughts by Master Sion on Documenting Dance:

Subject: Re: SL - Documentation Notes

I've only done documentation for dance, so this may be of limited
use.  What I like to see is:

2-3 pages summary and/or overview, especially noting anything out
of the ordinary in the performance.

A series of appendices including:

* The original text,
* A translation of the original text (preferably the reconstructor's,)
* The music in modern notation (not everyone can read tablatures,)
* A reconstruction relating steps and figure to the music,
* A short directory of the step reconstructions used for the performance.
