SONG LAB WITH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Is there such a thing as the perfect concert? We ask ourselves this question in our song lab “Who Are You” at Microsoft headquarters. Our artists allow themselves to be optimized by artificial intelligence. Using gesture and facial recognition, the AI analyzes our musicians for “mistakes” – and corrects them with impulses, visuals and sound. A confrontational musical performance between man and machine. The result is open.
