Abstract

This research aims to describe the interaction between artists as educational influencers and digital platforms to create authentic and engaging content. A multi-method approach is applied to investigate the complex dynamics of digital conservation efforts. The material objects are choreographers whose artistic pursuits are in accordance with their style and their visions of creating art with digital innovation. The results highlight the different impacts of each platform on audience engagement, cultural exchange, and depth of educational content, thus demonstrating an audience-centered approach to digital conservation. TikTok’s engagement, Instagram’s community building, and YouTube’s comprehensive exploration underscore the need for diverse digital strategies to ensure holistic representation and sustainability of cultural expressions. Digital platforms are catalysts for the evolution of performing arts in line with the concept of “living heritage,” where traditions continue to adapt in dialogue with societal and technological trends. © 2026 National Dance Education Organization.
