BYTE with LuminAl
Roswell, GA (January 5, 2023) Today Computer Museum of America (CMoA) has sealed the deal with the Georgia Institute of Technology to bring LumninAl to CMoA’s fundraiser, BYTE: An Evening of Cuisine, Cocktails, and Computers on March 9, 2023.
LuminAl is an interactive art installation that allows participants to improvise movements with an AI dance partner. The scene is then projected onto a screen. The virtual agent segments the users’ motions into gestures, then it uses these gestures to create its own movements.
LuminAI has been showcased in only a few places including the Smithsonian and the ArtScience Museum in Singapore.
On March 9, at CMoA’s BYTE, there will be a demonstration featuring dancers from Kennesaw State University. Following the performance, guests are invited to engage the agents in their very own dance routine.
The LuminAI exhibit will be open at CMoA from March 10-12 to museum visitors making the experience more accessible to the greater community.
It is an honor to have Georgia Tech’s LuminAI installation demonstrated at Computer Museum of America and we hope that you will join us to dance either at our BYTE Fundraiser on March 9 or any time during open hours between March 10-12.
