In Dance out of Pattern, Luna Maurer uses an AI system she developed herself to explore what happens when she has an AI companion as a dance partner. It is not a digital twin or virtual dancer, but an AI system that interprets her movements, responds to her and challenges her using language, facilitating a mutual dialogue. Maurer responds live to the AI’s prompts. The audience can read along and thus interpret the prompts for themselves simultaneously.
Through this work, Maurer explores whether physical expression can be a way to create new stories together with a non-human entity: what emerges when a human dancer and a machine actually ‘engage in conversation’ with one another through movement?
The exposition exists out of multiple screens showcasing her work.
