Contribution
It introduces a novel perspective on using AI 'mistakes' as a creative resource in dance, emphasizing the role of glitches in artistic practice.
Findings
AI-generated glitches inspire new dance movements
Glitches challenge traditional notions of realism in art
Mistakes open novel creative pathways
Abstract
What role does the break from realism play in the potential for generative artificial intelligence as a creative tool? Through exploration of glitch, we examine the prospective value of these artefacts in creative practice. This paper describes findings from an exploration of AI-generated "mistakes" when using movement produced by a generative deep learning model as an inspiration source in dance composition.
