On Generative Choreography: Artist Talk by Operator
Join Operator’s Ania Catherine and Dejha Ti for an in-depth and process-focused talk about their recent work in on-chain generative choreography. Drawing from multiple histories, the duo traces the roots of their process to Merce Cunningham’s “chance dance” method, computational choreography, the E.A.T. (Experiments in Art and Technology) movement of the 1960s, as well as various embodied approaches to human-machine collaboration by early women in digital art. As part of their ongoing Privacy Collection exploring the tension between privacy and transparency in blockchain technology, this conceptual generative choreography series will be released in May 2023.
The talk is followed by a conversation between Operator and Erick Calderon, founder of Art Blocks.
