THE “RING” IN MOTION —
AN EXPERIMENT. AN INVITATION.

For 150 years, the “Ring” has been reimagined, re-seen, re-heard in Bayreuth. But what happens when the stage itself begins to think?
On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the Bayreuth Festival, the audience can expect an experiment of visionary power: a “staging” that not only presents Richard Wagner’s music drama, but places its reception history at the center—through a visual dimension that constantly changes, expands, and recomposes itself. For the first time in the history of the Festival, Artificial Intelligence will take part on stage—not as a character, but as an image-generating force.

BETWEEN PRESENCE AND PROJECTION

The singers are at the heart of the performance, in a calm, almost sculptural presence. Their bodies become the fixed point within a visually seething cosmos of light, texture, history, and association, amidst projections that erupt, constantly shift, and merge into one another. The projections are more than stage design—they are a reflective surface of a 150-year discourse. The AI that generates them has learned from countless images, voices, documents, and productions. It does not present a single “Ring,” but many: the national myth, the socio-political upheaval, the artistic explosive force, the romantic utopia, the deconstructed shadow. Every performance will be unique—because the images and associations never stand still.
