Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

70% overall attendance to shows with majority of the audience being able to identify a connection between the dance works and scientific displays, as well as leave with a sense of connection to Minnesota's natural environments. Artists and scientists feel that they have viewed this work from a different perspective: artists can apply a ?scientific eye' their work with and scientists can decipher the reasoning behind creative choices. Surveys for dancers about creation process, surveys for audience members where questions will pertain to audience members' overall experience, whether or not relevance between art and science is clear and whether the interactive exhibit provided by OSA helped to facilitate this connection, whether they felt a sense of connection to Minnesota environments, how they heard about the show for promotional evaluation, and to gather demographic information on who the audience members are to better understand the community Analog is serving. Analog will visually count the number of audience members interacting with the exhibit to ascertain if goal of 70% of audience interaction is achieved. A conversation will be held with OSA about the process and how to ameliorate the partnership for future projects, and Brenna and Zoe will hold conversations with advisory committee in order to determine what worked, what did not work, and to ameliorate future Analog creation and production processes.
