چکیده

Current Biology 26, R1–R21, January 11, 201 imitation. Some provisional support for these hypotheses has already been presented, but there are clearly opportunities to test these hypotheses more rigorously. There are also likely to be implications for understanding some of the properties of music, as music and dance seemingly originated together [11], and some aspects of musical rhythm, such as syncopation, can only be fully understood as features that originated in a dancing context [21]. Curiously, in common parlance, the term imitation often has a derogatory quality, being associated with mindless and uninspired action, and contrasted with innovation. Historically the arts have placed value on creative and avant guard movements that push against established convention, and the inspiration for much dance innovation, as it has been for innovation more generally, has been precisely a reaction against ‘mere imitation’. For instance, modern dance pioneers such as Isadora Duncan and Martha Graham positioned themselves against the stylized dance strictures exemplifi ed in classical ballet. Only now, in the light of scientifi c evidence, can we appreciate how smart copying is, and how vital imitation and other forms of social learning are to dance.
