A new performance from Studio Wayne McGregor and composer Chris Lyons.

Studio Wayne McGregor will deliver a creative residency culminating in a performance. The creative residency will centre on McGregor’s AI.Soma – a world’s first, machine learning choreographic tool developed specifically for McGregor with Google Arts and Culture Lab. During the residency, 12 students from a range of dance backgrounds studying on MSc Dance Science & Education programme at Moray House School of Education and Sport, will be introduced to the AI tool, learn excerpts of McGregor’s AI repertory and use AI.Soma to develop their own choreographic material, which Studio Wayne McGregor artists will then develop into a 20 minute public sharing performed by the dance artists. This Residency offers an opportunity for the Participants to gain exclusive insight into McGregor’s artistic process, and the creative process of his closest collaborators, Company Wayne McGregor. Studio Wayne McGregor has developed a consummate reputation for transformative approaches to how dance is taught, learned, and spoken about. To date, over 100,000 people of all ages and experiences have participated in our workshops and residencies across the UK and internationally, from school children to adults, and professional dancers to those who have never danced before.

This event is part of the Edinburgh Futures Institute's free public events series Learning Curves, taking place from October-December 2024
