Abstract: Live performance by David Wynen in 'Bollywood Meets Tap', Commonwealth Game Live Site, Camp Street, Ballarat, March 2006. Such research is related to the combination of two opposing styles of dance, and the background work taken in investigating the history of Bollywood and Tap-two ephemeral dance/art forms. In the past tap and Bollywood has rarely been defined, archived or notated. Such work into integrating musical styles and dance took a signifcant undertaking. This had led to further research into the area of archiving and notating tap dance, creating a codified language and system of notation. The significant of this research is that it fulfils educational criteria whilst showcasing students to the commercial industry. Also integrates dance and art through its brief. Its research component relates to the historic referencing, and educational and professional outcomes.
