Performance
MANABE Daito / MIKIKO / ISHIBASHI Motoi [Japan]
Outline
A dance performance produced with a theme of “harmony between human and robot”, in which industrial robots move in sync with the count of music. It is a collaboration of human dancers, motorized flying cubes, and industrial robots with “human-like” qualities that have been choreographed by a program, all performing on a stage with image projections. The work presents us with possibilities of a new kind of performance, with expressions that surpass the limitations of the human body.
