Title: Enriching Performing Arts through AI and XR Technologies
Abstract: The performing arts, including the rich traditions of dance and theatre, are undergoing a significant transformation with the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Extended Reality (XR) technologies. This talk will delve into how these advanced technologies are being used to revolutionize the lifecycle of performances - from production and curation to delivery and analysis and discuss their broader implications for the future of performing arts. The focus will be on enhancing both the creative process and audience engagement through digital innovation.
The integration of AI further extends to the analysis and enrichment of both new and existing digital artifacts, which are incorporated into a Virtual Reality framework. This setup not only offers advanced navigational features but also improves the interpretative capabilities of art scholars. The resultant immersive environment deepens the connection between the artwork and its audience, transforming the viewer experience through interactive and personalized engagements. By merging traditional art forms with modern digital technologies, this approach not only preserves but also enhances the cultural significance of performing arts in our increasingly digital world.
