Fostering AI Literacy with LuminAI through Embodiment and Creativity in Informal Learning Spaces

Published: 23 June 2024 Publication History

Abstract

LuminAI is an interactive art installation that allows participants to collaborate with an AI dance partner by improvising movements. During the interaction, the participant dances with an AI dance partner who learns from the participant’s movements in real-time and remixes them into new, unexpected forms of motion. LuminAI blurs the lines between the participant and AI agent, inviting the participant to improvise and engage with AI in a dance of creativity. Recently, we’ve redesigned LuminAI with the educational purpose of enhancing the public’s AI literacy. We separated LuminAI into three panels with AI-related educational goals for each panel and redesigned the user interaction. In this paper, we present the redesign of LuminAI and educational goals centering on enhancing the public’s AI literacy.
