Summary
UNCSA will stage an afternoon residency on how AI is reshaping artistic practice, centered on choreographer Xin Ying’s AI-inflected piece “Letter to Nobody.”
The program, hosted with the Thomas S. Kenan Institute for the Arts, brings together artists, technologists, legal scholars and industry leaders to examine AI’s ethical, legal, technical and creative implications.
“Letter to Nobody,” created by Xin Ying with Mimi Yin and NUUM Collective, will anchor a deep-dive discussion, a presentation of the work and an audience talkback.
A free public screening of “The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist,” which premiered at SXSW 2026, broadens the event’s focus from performance to AI’s wider social impact.
Additional program details are still to come as UNCSA positions the residency for artists, educators, students, researchers and arts leaders tracking AI’s effect on creative work.
