Bodies that dance alone - Petra - 12 EIVV

Petra: Director Project Type: Experimental, Web / New Media, Other Runtime: 4 minutes 45 seconds Completion Date: January 10, 2025 Country of Origin: Mexico This piece explores the body in movement as a system of control and liberation, using artificial intelligence to generate synthetic choreographies that challenge the oppressive norms of society and dance practice. A performer trains an AI model with his gestures and gives them movement, creating abstract sequences that deform and multiply their reality. These choreographies blur the boundaries between the human and the artificial, criticizing the hierarchies and exclusions of traditional dance. The work celebrates the diversity of bodies and languages, proposing a new paradigm in which imperfection and indeterminacy are acts of resistance.
