Aszure Barton x Floating Points

Returning after a much lauded premiere in 2024, Mere Mortals is a collaboration between Canadian choreographer Aszure Barton and DJ and composer Floating Points. Combining classical orchestral music and EDM, the work is a reimagining of the ancient Greek tale of Pandora's Box, adapting it to the modern, AI-heavy era in which we live.

The ballet seeks to bring a new twist to the myth, questioning the potential of artificial intelligence and the risks it may pose if the box is left open. An innovative combination of a classical medium with modern electronic music, Mere Mortals is a must-see for longstanding ballet fans and newcomers alike!
