In previous years people have worked in laboratory situations building installations in which movement controls sound. Theremins, infra red sensors, lightsensors and camera systems were used to capture the movements. In other setups the dancers were carrying around an array of sensors and their cables.
At http://www.medienkunstnetz.de/works/variations-v you'll find a text and video of such a performance. This is "Variations V" (1965), by John Cage and the Merce Cunningham dance company. 40 years later the concept of movement controlling sounds still fascinates many.
"I don't remember what time it was" is presented in combination with "Space InvasiON". In this breakdance performance the dancers also control the music, using an advanced camera setup by Frans-Jan Wind.
