Nondance Dance 2, AI system, 4-channel video installation, loop, silent, 2024.

Nondance Dance 2 presents dances that AI cannot recognize as dance.

Using AI* specialized in action recognition, it focuses on the human body's movements and explores various approaches to dance that go beyond AI's recognition.

Eighteen 'nondance dance' videos are randomly projected onto two screens. When the AI identifies a movement as dance, the video turns black. Small monitors behind each screen display how the AI interprets the dancer's movements on the opposite screen.
