Although a number of movement notation systems have been invented, only a few have been developed and are in substantial use. Movement notation systems are inherently complex and therefore are difficult to master. The system described here is designed to accept Labanotation commands as input when they are entered with a light pen at a computer graphics terminal, to interpret the commands and to display the output as a computer driven movie of dancing figures. To enhance the capabilities of the computer assisted notator a macro language is being developed to make more powerful commands available. The characteristics of the macro language and of a possible higher level language are discussed.
