Works created using digital technologies have begun to be presented to art enthusiasts in digital environments. Over time, digital art has adopted and shaped its own rules, forms of expression, and characteristics. The digital art form, which has successfully influenced traditional art fields, has paved the way for the emergence of new genres such as net art and virtual reality, allowing artistic works to be created in these areas. Digital art, which has been effective in influencing the cultural and traditional structure of societies, has also started to manifest its impact on the art of dance since the 1970s. Both the use of digital equipment on stage and digitally produced stage performances are elements that demonstrate digital interactions in this field. The purpose of this study is to understand the practice of dance art in the digital environment, to see which dynamics it benefits from, and to examine the extent to which it can affect cultural continuity. In the research, the case study approach, one of the qualitative research methods, is adopted. This method aims to examine a specific situation, phenomenon, or event in detail. The focal point of the research is the data to be obtained through visual-auditory sources, documents, and reports.}, number={1}, publisher={Sakarya Üniversitesi}
