These physics-based and dance verb-relating models generate dance movements dynamically instead of reserve of motion data. In terms of movement representation, these models are useful for computer-assisted choreography and for character animation. In terms of movement understanding, these models based on physics are useful as well by manipulating the cause-effect relation of modeling. In other words, these models can be a kind of predictive models for human behavioral research. In the article, the authors explain mainly the concept of ''a dynamic life of cause'' relating to both physics-based models and dance verbs. Furthermore, the authors propose composing ''a dynamic life of cause'' for movement composition
