Christian Mio Loclair is a German artist who has been dancing and coding since 1994. He began his professional career as a performer and choreographer in 2001, and has since become a renowned figure in the field of art and technology, with a strong focus on artificial intelligence. In addition to his work in dance and performance, Mio studied computer science at the University of Potsdam, specializing in media technology and human-computer interaction.

His interdisciplinary background at the intersection of poetic communication, body movements, algorithms, and data has inspired numerous artworks that explore the encounter of man and machine. Mio is the Founder of Waltz Binaire, a new media design studio that focuses on Artificial Intelligence, and the Co-Founder of Journee, a Web3.0 Metaverse Company.

Mio’s work combines and reflects his expertise and experience as a computer scientist, visual artist, choreographer, and dancer. He creates sculptures, video works, and installations that continuously portray the aesthetics and frictions of both human and digital identity. Using custom algorithms, data, and digital devices, Mio explores the contrast between natural phenomena and data-driven algorithms, examining the creative and societal potential of artificial intelligence.

His works have been presented at several prestigious venues, including the Today Art Museum, ars electronica, MCAM, Center Pompidou, Design Museum London, Palazzo delle Esposizioni, EPFL Pavilion, Le Pavillon Namur, and ZKM. Mio continues to live and work in Berlin, where he focuses on developing novel aesthetic identities that derive from the interplay of mathematical and poetic research.
