Robocygne : Dancing life into an animal-human-machine

• Robocygne is an artistic project that revolves around the development of a custom-built robotic bird, dancing to a remix of Tchaikovsky’s “Swan Lake.” The choreography was created through a process where movements were danced into the robot by the choreographer’s manipulation of the limbs, by hand, to the music. To enable this multi-tracking procedure, novel software was developed, allowing overlying recording of motions in synchronization with an audio-track. From an artistic perspective the authors discuss the search for choreographic and musical qualities and emphasize how material aspects of body and technology interrelate with emotional expression in Robocygne.
