Performing arts in a new era: AI and XR tools for better understanding, preservation, enjoyment and accessibility

Project description

Giving the performing arts a makeover

Captivating audiences around the world, the performing arts are hailed as a platform for creativity and expression. With a focus on dance and theatre, the EU-funded PREMIERE project aims to modernise the field by using advanced digital technologies that will support the whole life-cycle of performances. Project work will lead to the development and validation of a comprehensive ecosystem of digital applications, powered by leading-edge artificial intelligence, extended reality and 3D technologies, to meet the needs of communities involved in the main stages of the life cycle of performing arts productions. Ultimately, project work will enhance the understanding, preservation and enjoyment of and accessibility to performing arts.

Objective

PREMIERE seeks to modernize the performing arts focusing on dance and theater by using advanced digital technologies to support the whole lifecycle of performances: from their production and curation by both amateurs and professionals, to their delivery and understanding from the audience, as well as their analysis and interpretation by art scholars. In doing so, PREMIERE will contribute to the following general goals:
1) Broaden accessibility to audiences that cannot attend live performances due to physical distance (international audience), health reasons (e.g. elderly, reduced mobility, immunocompromised), or economic reasons (low income).
2) Enhance the understanding of present and past performances by audiences with diverse cultural, social, historical and educational backgrounds.
3) Enrich the creative process by adding new elements, dimensions and capabilities, offered by advanced digital technologies, while enabling international (and therefore inter-cultural) collaboration.
4) Increase the visibility of performances by supporting both spectators in searching for relevant content and producers/curators in communicating their work to the most relevant audiences.
Accordingly, the overall objective of PREMIERE is to develop and validate a comprehensive ecosystem of digital applications, powered by leading edge AI, XR and 3D technologies, designed to fulfill the needs of diverse end-user communities involved in the main stages of the lifecycle of performing arts productions, including amateur and professional performers, performance art producers and curators, performance art spectators and scholars.
