Dancing with the Nonhuman develops
a posthuman, diffractive performance-making practice that seeks to explore our relationships with machines as radically entangled,
performative encounters. Bringing together creative robotics, choreography, dance, and new materialism, the artistic research
project harnesses dancers' kinaesthetic knowledge to probe into and challenge rigid subject-object boundaries to mobilize
and reimagine them.
The concluding symposium seeks to foster an exchange between
the transdisciplinary perspectives of the Dancing with the Nonhuman project and the positions and projects of invited artistic
researchers, and to share this exchange with the public. Specifically, the day aims to open up a dialogue on more-than-human
entanglements, looked at through the embodied and creative methodological lenses of performance and dance, as well as AI and
robotics (and beyond).
