 The differences systematic process of ritual based ceremonies in the past and present in Sri Lanka.(In this description based on a sacrificial ritual performed sri lankan university in 2019.10.27)    
Generally refers the ritual based activities come with generation by generation. Because that which had having protected to past from present still us having to chance for getting to experience it. As well as the especial chance to understand in the essence in the past cultuaral habitual rituals. But in here I will hope to discuss how did change the ritual ceremony structure or process in the present society. Especially I am discussing about the general ritual ceremony to all three types of dance traditions in Sri Lanka. Which called Bali shanthikaramaya. In which how made changes in that processing and effects after come on a proscenium stage with experience gained as a spectator.
Generally in the past ritual based ceremonies have done in open air places. But in here Bali shanthikarmaya did on the internal stage place. Because this changed rather than past, the audience faced a different situation. Why the reason, in The past an audience sat down and connected with doing the ritualistic persons. But in present, especially in the place here we were sitting down on chairs and with it had some negative effect as an audience. It made a gap with audience and performers. Because that reason normally according to say the ritual based actives have unity, but it's broken in here.


Lighting is a another expected to success it. In the past societies were used oil lamps. Because followed this, in that shanthikarma had extremely different appear. it had different artistic value. But in that day, they used artificial lights and performed normally who used natural oil lamps, but which have not impacted postivly on the audience.
Generally, all ritual ceremonies have special benefits as suited as  it. According it Bali shanthikarmaya has a special benefit. Which is to protect from illnesses. But in here I can have understood that purpose have not highlighted like that. Why, in here they were performed just introduced or get to knowledge as I know. Patients were sitting down on the stage but, I had understood they are sat down like symbolized.

As well as in this Bali shanthikarmaya has different features rather than past period ritual ceremonies

The Future of the Dance World: An Academic Perspective By Kavindhya Bandara Dance has long served as a vital medium of cultural expression, social communication, and artistic innovation. As global societies continue to evolve through technological advancement, digital transformation, and cultural exchange, the future of the dance world is expected to undergo significant structural and aesthetic changes. These changes will influence how dance is created, performed, taught, and experienced. Technological Integration in Dance Practice One of the most influential factors shaping the future of dance is technology. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly being used to analyze body movement, enhance choreography, and support performance training. Motion-capture systems and biomechanical analysis allow dancers to study posture, alignment, and efficiency of movement with scientific precision. Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) further expand performance spaces by creating imme...

Dance Body and Artificial Intelligence:

Dance Body and Artificial Intelligence: Reimagining Embodiment, Authorship, and Movement in the Digital Age Dance has always existed as a deeply embodied art form, rooted in the physical, emotional, and cultural experiences of the human body. The dancer’s body functions not only as a medium of movement but also as a site of memory, identity, and expression. In recent years, the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) has introduced a transformative shift in how movement is observed, created, and interpreted. The intersection of the dance body and AI opens a critical space where human embodiment encounters computational intelligence, challenging traditional understandings of creativity, authorship, and corporeality. From my perspective as Kavindhya Bandara, this intersection should not be understood as a replacement of the human dancer, but as a complex dialogue between bodily intelligence and machine systems. The dance body carries lived experience—emotion, fatigue, breath, resistan...

How to Include Creativity into AI and Its Advantages for Dancers By Kavindhya Bandara Introduction Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer limited to science and technology fields. It has entered the creative world, influencing art, music, and especially dance. When creativity is integrated into AI systems, dancers gain new tools for choreography, performance, and learning. This article explores how creativity can be embedded into AI and how it benefits dancers in the modern digital era. What Does Creativity in AI Mean? Creativity in AI refers to a system’s ability to produce novel, meaningful, and expressive outputs rather than simply repeating existing patterns. According to Boden (2023), AI can simulate creative behavior by combining ideas in new ways, although it still relies on human guidance. However, human creativity is deeply connected to emotions, experiences, and cultural identity. Gopnik (2024) explains that AI cannot fully replace human imagination but can act as a creati...
