Creativity ≠ Generativity: A Case Study of Attentive Machine Learning in Dance Performance
DescriptionDance expresses through translation. It transforms intention and story into movement through tacit and relational knowledge. When computational systems enter, they interpret movement as machine-legible forms, shaping how dance is perceived. This paper presents a case study of human–machine co-performance translation through a movement recognition system in a twenty-minute dance work. Using wearable IMU sensors and a MiniRocket-based classifier, our system translates performers’ movements into real-time audiovisual responses, while elevating agency, care, and meaning over accuracy.
