Luup

dance performance, 2023, 15'

Luup is a short version of Human in the loop. This flexible and adaptable 15-minutes format was co-produced by the Dança em Transito dance festival in Brazil en 2023. What happens when an artificial intelligence takes part in the creation of a choregraphy ? Based on instructions generated by the AI before each performance, and discovered in real time by the performers on stage, the artistic process is revealed before our very eyes, as a witness a veritable visual laboratory of potential relationships beetween humans and artificial intelligence. Human in the loop takes a humorous, offbeat look at power relationships and questions our freedom within an oppressive, devious and often absurd structure governed by algorithms.
