What happens when an AI creates a choreography live in front of an audience? This question has intrigued many artists and performers, and now it's becoming a reality. With the help of AI, choreography is evolving in exciting and unexpected ways.

The process of AI-generated choreography is as intriguing as the performance itself. The instructions follow one another, strange or zany, and the AI creates a unique and unpredictable dance routine. With humour and quirkiness, the piece questions the power relationships between the performers and a digital choreographer. The performance explores the human experience within an oppressive, devious, and often absurd structure governed by algorithms.

As an audience member, you will witness a unique dance experience where human performers interact with an AI choreographer, blurring the lines between human and machine. The performance creates a dialogue between the two, raising questions about the role of technology in our lives and its impact on the arts.

This performance is not just about the interaction between humans and machines; it is also about the freedom we have within a digital structure. The performance raises questions about the limits of freedom in a world governed by algorithms.

Nicole studied dance and theatre in Switzerland and Belgium, and went on to perform for several prestigious companies. She formed her own company in 2002. Her artistic approach is largely focused on the relationship between image and video. Her research into video and choreography has led to the creation of innovative works, dance and multimedia, videos and choreographic installations that aim to keep the audience active in their interpretation of the work.

Since 2010 her research focuses mainly on the relationship between image and sound and led her to explore the description of movement, from both a historical and personal point of view, but also more generally to question how image and sound connect in our memories. Since the last few years, her exploration into sound also includes voice work. The company has toured internationally since 2004.
