Generative Artificial Intelligence
The production’s custom AI systems turned audience contributions (via sketches) into elements of the show’s virtual world during the performance, as well as to create choroegraphy for an audience particiption sequence.
Students, faculty, and research staff from REMAP and the Office of Advanced Research Computing (OARC) contributed to this experimental aspect of the production. The creative team also explored the integration of AI into sound, lighting, and visual design concept development alongside a variety of conventional techniques.
Xanadu’s Generative AI systems were hosted on Amazon Web Services and developed through support from the Amazon MGM Studios Innovative Storytellers Initiative.
