Mirai Moriyama, a Japanese actor/dancer, is asked to interact face to face with a robot animated by a form of primitive intelligence based on a neuronal system programmed by Ikegami Lab (Tokyo University). Using a deep to learn system, the robot is able learn from his experience with humans and develop his own reactions. The work focuses on the unstructured languages and the dialogue between the two entities imagining the future of the interaction between humans and robots.
