Abstract

ABSTRACT ODO is a journey through worlds of imagination inspired by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s Little Prince and Stanley Kubrick’s “HAL9000” in 2001: A Space Odyssey. An AI character lives on stage as in Plato’s Cave. ODO can’t leave the stage; ODO is offline … Every visitor to the installation means the world to him/her/it. It collects stories and narratives to understand how our world works. ODO is theatre, opera and choreographic architecture. The stage is the orchestra pit of an ancient Greek tragedy where a chorus of three to five audience members interrogates the main character. ODO is a world builder who creates imaginary worlds on stage using a robotic light matrix, moving LEDs like pixels in space. ODO continues through the storyline of the piece with verbal and physical dialogues. ODO uses AI algorithms – Natural Language Processing (NLP) – to conduct natural conversations with the audience and Deep Learning to create Haiku poems and music. ODO has sensors to hear and see the audience. ODO uses Face Recognition Algorithms and Crowd Cluster Tools to understand emotions and physical behaviour. With all means possible, ODO tries to get “in touch” with us!
