Drawing on cyborg feminism and posthuman theories, the work disrupts binaries like human/machine and physical/virtual, presenting identity as fluid and co-constructed. Through AI-generated imagery and audience interaction, performers’ bodies become dynamic sites of negotiation, where technology amplifies societal pressures while enabling new expression. By situating hybrid bodies in hyperreal spaces, the piece explores power, representation, and selfhood, questioning human agency’s entanglement with algorithmic processes. This paper discusses the theoretical foundations, design methodology, and insights from public presentations, showing how these interactions redefine embodiment and critique digital mediation’s influence on identity in the age of generative AI.
