Abstract: This article examines the choreographic sphere through the perspectives of cine-digitalities, archival memories, and camera mediations. I argue that our pandemic and post-pandemic Zoomscapes introduced a new cine-material plane that reorganized the choreographic process, as well as its presence and remoteness. I investigate how the web camera's distinct repository of temporality propels the dance archive forward, its complexity heightened by the pandemic. In all instances, rather than describing works of dance, I focus on how they emerge in this particular digital constellation, while delineating how they occur as complex events: as kinetic objects, kinetic surfaces, and kinetic proceedings, conjoined and choreographically labored by the camera.
