Re/generative performance explores a collective relationship to a memory of performance gestures, based on fifteen years of artistic actions carried out within Le Générateur, archived on the “Performance Sources” platform. What happens to this living memory when it is processed like statistical data by artificial intelligence? How is it replayed from the latent space of data? How can a group of young performers rediscover, through this “noise”, an embodied, situated relationship to the gestures that took place in this place? What meaning circulates from one generation to the next, despite the formatting imposed by computational generativity? Faced with the automatic recomposition of instructions delivered in real time, the artists scrutinize the signs sent beyond the datas, to inscribe them in an incalculable relationship, between body, space and objects.
