Artificial Intelligence Real Dance

Plagiary is a dance performance experiment that employs Artificial Intelligence as a speaking choreographer and playwright who generates an entirely new show before your eyes in collaboration with live contemporary dance improvisors. Working with acclaimed media artist Sam Mcgilp, Plagiary explores entire visual worlds made with AI that are bespoke to each performance. Updating the contemporary dance format, Plagiary opens a space to deepen our knowledge of embodiment in the age of AI. At a time when we are questioning our relevance as a species, Plagiary champions the human body, platforming our natural form as one of the final sites untouched by artificial intelligence.
