Can archaic rituals such as that of the mother's conception, brought metaphorically into dialogue with innovation, generate new mythologies?

AI code tends to be more complicated, so it,s more difficult to examine to see if anyone has slipped in some nefarious algorithms. Like all software, we want to know who produced it and why. Is it a trustworthy source? Is it competent?

Retracing the definition of heterotopia enunciated by philosopher Michel Foucault, the dance production <<Mother>> seeks a performative demonstration of the coexistence of a relationship between AI and the impact on the body. Mother addresses numerous thematic strands: our relationship with algorithms and the resulting virtual experience, the exploration of physical and digital space, the creative capacity of machines, or even the construction of new contemporary rituals. Again: from explorations of the relationship with the non-human to those of visions, fears and dreams related to virtual reality, from immersion in the machinic unconscious to mapping different looks at the futures that await us.
