Our final stop is for the students at Srishti Manipal Institute of Art, Design & Technology on March 30.

We’ll be performing Luup — a shorter version of Human in the Loop.

In Luup, performers discover AI-generated instructions in real time, turning the performance into a playful and absurd experiment between humans and algorithms.

Originally co-produced by the Dança em Trânsito Dance Festival in 2023.

Puducherry, we’re coming to you! 🌿🌸

In Human in the Loop, dancers step on stage without knowing what will happen next. Instructions generated by artificial intelligence appear in real time, slowly shaping the choreography before our eyes.

The result is unpredictable, playful, and sometimes absurd, a strange dance between humans and algorithms.

Join us for the Puducherry show. 💃💃

Premier Alert:
Far away from our homies, friends and family we embark on the European Premiere of our new show. We discuss hospitality, in a time when the world is least hospitable. It's cold here, even though we're warm and protected.
It's been three years since our first encounter with , we are now much more than hosts & guests to each other.
We played hosts in India, it's their turn now.
Friends in Berlin-- we hope to see some of you here.
Friends back home - send us some warmth and love... We will miss you especially when we crack bad jokes and no one laughs.
😁
Wait to be Seated is all about negotiations: we will discuss and disagree, even as we sing & dance together.
We're able to do that simply because there's Respect, Trust, and most importantly, Love in the room. Onwards and forward - ready or not, here we come ❤️

And, just like that we're ready for the next phase of Wait to be Seated. What does hospitality and welcoming a guest mea...

And, just like that we're ready for the next phase of Wait to be Seated.
What does hospitality and welcoming a guest mean in today's day and age when diplomacy asks for the exact opposite?
After premiering in Bangalore and Pondicherry the show prepares for its European premiere.
If you're anywhere in the area, we hope you'll stop to come and watch us tell stories, sing and dance. We'll also be playing guest and host with our friends and collaborators with whom we embarked on this journey in 2022. What an incredible privilege this journey has been.
Hope to see you somewhere soon
