德国拜罗伊特瓦格纳音乐节在周六晚的《诸神的黄昏》演出中首次尝试人工智能辅助舞台设计，通过AI生成的投影混合展示历史场景和前期演出片段，但这一创新尝试因画面混乱而招致观众嘘声。[1]音乐节方面称这是将AI用于舞台，"不是作为角色，而是作为图像生成力量"。[1]
策展人Marcus Lobbes及其团队在演出后上台时遭到观众的嘘声和口哨声。[1]虽然舞台设计饱受质疑，但歌手和指挥却获得了热烈掌声。[1]AI投影的内容包括前德国总理赫尔穆特·科尔的形象、世贸中心2001年9月11日后的景象以及1990年德国统一纪念邮票。[1]
音乐节网站表示"每场演出都是独特的——因为图像和联想永远不会静止"。[1]还有两场演出计划进行。[1]
The Bayreuth Wagner Festival in Germany made its first use of artificial intelligence in theatrical staging during a Saturday evening performance of "Twilight of the Gods," employing AI-assisted projections to generate stage imagery.[1] The experimental AI projections blended historical scenes and excerpts from previous productions, though the resulting images prompted audible disapproval from the audience.[1] Despite the mixed reception for the visual effects, the singers and conductor received enthusiastic applause.[1]
Curator Marcus Lobbes and his team took the stage following the performance and faced boos and whistling from attendees.[1] The AI-generated imagery incorporated diverse visual elements, including former German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, scenes of the World Trade Center site following the September 11, 2001 attacks, and a commemorative German reunification stamp from 1990.[1] According to the festival's website, the approach ensures that "each performance remains unique—because images and associations never remain static."[1] The festival has scheduled two additional performances featuring this AI-assisted staging concept.[1]
