The Glitch

As part of LDN LAB, we present "THE GLITCHBOX”: a revolutionary open-source tool that transforms human expression—voice, movement, and sound—into living, responsive visual environments in real-time. This installation demonstrates a new paradigm for human-AI collaboration: not AI as replacement or mimicry, but as creative partner, responding instantly to human presence to generate unique audiovisual experiences that could never exist without this synthesis.

Performers become co-creators, their voices and gestures triggering cascades of generative visuals that reflect and amplify human creativity through machine intelligence. The GlitchBox represents the democratization of AI art-making—a tool designed to be accessible, modifiable, and forever evolving through community contribution. Come along and join in!? The GlitchBox was created by Primavera De Filippi, Apolinario Passos, Marco Conti Šikić, and Giulio Trichilo (members of the Glitch Collective) in partnership with Hugging Face, Alien Intelligence, and 204.ai, commissioned by SXSW London, curated by Alex Poots and produced by North Star Studio.
