John McCormick & Steph Hutchison investigate the use of machine learning for the development of intelligent performing partners and environments. Their practice has centred on the application of learning techniques to performing software agents and humanoid robots to explore the potential for them to become more a part of the collaborative performance-making process. Steph and John are artist researchers at Motion. Lab Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia. McCormick is Deputy Director, Hutchison is PhD Candidate
