AΦE (AE) is a UK-based dance company founded in Chatham in 2016 and led by artistic co-directors Esteban Lecoq and Aoi Nakamura. Together they create installations and performances that involve both dance and immersive realities, partnering with technology companies, research institutions, and arts partners such as Sadler’s Wells Theatre in London, Théâtre de Chaillot in Paris, and Australia’s Sydney Festival. Lilith.AI is a deeply personal lecture-performance that explores human mortality and technology. It chronicles the duo’s encounter with grief, their discovery of cryogenic freezing, and the creation of their digital offspring, Lilith, which formed the basis for an interactive installation entitled LILITH.AEON. This presentation was seen one time only during the opening week of the Doris Duke Theatre.
