Special Robotics/Performing Arts Event: Huang Yi and KUKA

Friday, September 25, 2015
8:00 p.m.
Kogod Theatre, The Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center

Join us at the Clarice's Kogood Theatre for Huang Yi and KUKA. Watch dancer, choreographer, inventor, and videographer Huang Yi's pioneering work, steeped in his fascination with the indivisible relationship between humans and our machine counterparts. His intimate choreographic creations with KUKA, an industrial robot, reveal a deep connectedness to our technological world that is both physically tender and emotionally resonant. As the machine world becomes ever more embedded in our lives, Huang Yi asks us to reflect on what it means to be human when hardware becomes body and software becomes soul.  | Ticket information |

This performance is offered on both Friday, Sept. 25 and Saturday, Sept. 26 at the same time and location.

Also see the FREE talk on Thursday, Sept. 24 with Huang Yi and Maryland Robotics Center Director S.K. Gupta.
