Exploring Generative AI and Dance-Making

Session Description:

In this session, participants will experiment with prompting generative Artificial Intelligence tools to yield useful choreographic or improvisational directives. Working with best practices in prompt-engineering, we will examine how AI tools can be used to encourage new ideas for movement in generating individual or group explorations. With the goal for AI to inspire the human, not replace the human, we’ll engage in an open discussion about the ways in which we might dialogue with our students about appropriate AI use and the ethical dangers in using these tools. This session will incorporate both movement and discussion.
