IMPROVISATION DE ROBOT - Meghan Cheng

“Set in a series of five one minute dances, the story follows The Robot and its desire for greater expression through dance.  The concept is based on the life of Loie Fuller, an American dancer who rejected the traditionalism of ballet and helped developed the modern dance style.  Much like qualities of the improvised music, The Robot creates its own real-time, generative choreography according to the musical gestures it hears. This creates a digital character that can express itself based on predefined rules and continues the legacy of Loie Fuller in a digital space.”
