Performance Situation Room: Artificial Intelligence between figure and background
Two choreographers show how they use AI in their dance practice.
In just five years, common-use artificial intelligence has invaded our thoughts, language, and relationship to images. It is still up for debate if the machines got more intelligent, or if the originality and creativity of the human mind have become more predictable. But the artificial neural networks prove durable, notwithstanding the intellectual property violations and pervasive surveillance systems they feed on.
During a week-long residency, choreographers Michiel Vandevelde and Arkadi Zaides present how they engage with AI within their own dance practices.
This performance is connected to the central theme of STUK’s 2026–2027 dance season: algorithms.
For the first time, STUK’s dance programme is built around a common thread running throughout the season. The theme of algorithms recurs across several performances. These performances help us understand what algorithms are and what they do. They not only showcase the latest applications of (digital) algorithms in the arts, but also actively contribute to the ongoing debate surrounding them.
