About

KineScribe is an iPad app that displays and edits scores in Laban movement notation. In it, users can read and create scores in structured Labanotation, Motif, and Language of Dance.

KineScribe reimagines LabanWriter for the touch screen, allowing users to write dances in Laban movement notation and quickly edit scores and symbols.

Development of this app was supported by Reed College and the National Endowment for the Humanities, with the cooperation of The Ohio State University. (Any views, findings, conclusions, or recommendations expressed here do not necessarily reflect those of the National Endowment for the Humanities.)

Continuing development of this app is supported by The Ohio State University and the Dance Preservation Fund.

KineScribe is available for free download on the Apple App Store.
