Sneak Peek Clips of SYREN in “At the Table” from 2025 at Bryant Park, Museum of Science-Boston, Tufts University, The Ailey Studios and Alpha Omega Theatrical Dance Company’s Studio.
Take a peek inside the studio during the process of making “At the Table”.
In a world where artificial intelligence
is a constant presence,
some instincts can lead us to pull away.
“At the Table” offers a question:
What if we stopped being
defensive and
simply pulled up a chair?
In this piece, the five company members
of SYREN perform nine distinct
sections choreographed by Kate Sutter
set to an original score
composed by Lauren Cregor.
These nine sections explore the
complexity of distinct AI related concepts
like machine learning,
the range of emotions of living in the AI era,
the hope derived from technological discoveries
and our relationship with entertainment and media.
With tender curiosity, "At the Table" offers
an invitation to view this technological
evolution as a shared endeavor,
holding the potential to deepen
our understanding of what it means to be human.
By ensuring everyone actively claims
a seat at the table, we collectively gain the
ability to shape the narrative of our future.
