Constructed by multi-award-winning dance technologist and choreographer Alisdair Macindoe, Plagiary hands creative decision-making over to artificial intelligence in a unique dance performance experiment.
Ten exceptional contemporary dancers become vessels for unpredictable directives, dictated by a computer voice presence. Acclaimed media artist Sam McGilp enhances the performance with immersive AI-generated visuals, crafting an ever-evolving digital landscape.
Plagiary cracks open a space to deepen our knowledge of embodiment. It champions the human body as one of the final entities untouched by artificial intelligence.
