Mira Buus
Co-founder, dance & movement research · Movement, Music & Machines
Dancer and improviser questioning the hierarchy of music over dance, and what happens when AI joins the room.
Halfway through her journey at Stockholm University of the Arts, Mira Buus is a dancer who brings a unique perspective to her craft.
Drawn to improvisation, she unsettles the accepted hierarchy of music over dance and probes the complex ties between language and movement.
Mira at Movement, Music & Machines
Within Movement, Music & Machines, Mira grounds the lab’s AI experiments in dance practice: testing movement-driven instruments in improvisation, and pushing the tools to treat dance as a source of music rather than a response to it.
