Description: What is Dancehall, and how does it employ visual technologies? Dancehall is not just a musical genre. It is Jamaica’s premier popular street theatre, a celebration of the entire spectrum of life from birth to death, expressed at events that combine dance and music, where consenting adults leave their troubles behind just for a moment to revel in the deep and old rhythmic structures that transport them into scape beyond the urban, beyond the inner city, into spaces of fulfilment.
