MDPE.24:4.2 - A short-video platform and a dance practice

A recommendation algorithm, camera convention, or viral phrase can mediate visibility and selection without becoming a dance practice or cultural whole. Engineer the mediating System and relation when that explanation is enough.

A platform-mediated practice becomes a candidate new whole only if actual production, imitation, publication, recognition, trend memory, participant relations, and recurring selection form an identifiable boundary and persist beyond individual trends, while also changing lower-scale phrase construction and training. Even then, the software platform, the wider participant practice, and a particular style remain different candidates. The project must select which one carries its current claim.
