Split Screen - An evening with Stacie Lee Bennett-Worth

Split Screen with Stacie Lee Bennett-Worth

Step into the future of performance! Split Screen explores how Digital Innovation and Artificial Intelligence are reshaping theatre, dance, music, and live performance. Whether you're an artist, performer, technician, educator, or creative producer, Split Screen empowers you to experiment, innovate, and tell stories in entirely new ways.

During the Split Screen events, we bring together some of Scotland's most talented artists, creative organisations, and digital experts to explore how technology can open up fresh ways of making and sharing performance.

This mixer event will provide a platform for knowledge exchange, peer networking, and expert talks and provocations from leading voices in the community. We aim to take attendees on a journey of discovery, where you leave feeling inspired and connected.

We are delighted to welcome Stacie Lee Bennett-Worth to share an evening with us and offer a window into the development process of choreographic software tool OTMO by Alexander Whitley Dance Company.

Split Screen is led by the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (RCS) in partnership with Scottish Opera, Scottish Ballet, Citizens Theatre, CodeBase, Techscaler, Creative Glasgow, and anam creative.

Supported by the Scottish Government Ecosystem Fund.

Keynote Speaker [Stacie Lee Bennett-Worth]

Stacie Lee Bennett-Worth is a multidisciplinary artist working across performance, film and installation, with a strong foundation in dance – beginning her training at just four years old. Her contemporary movement practice explores how creativity can support mobility, flexibility and wellbeing, both personally and collectively.

Her work, often situated between choreography and digital media, has been presented in diverse settings including Turner Contemporary, Big Screen Southend, and the National Maritime Museum. Stacie has a particular interest in reframing natural environments – especially coastal spaces – within indoor spaces such as galleries and museums, offering new ways of experiencing place and presence.

In 2024, she completed her PhD at De Montfort University. Her research developed the Digital Circuit Training Model – a practical, accessible framework for integrating low-cost digital tools into performing arts education. This work supports both teachers and students in enhancing digital performance skills and bridging the gap to higher education.

Stacie is also the Executive Director at Alexander Whitley Dance Company, an artist-led creative studio at the intersection of performance, installation, research, and digital technology.
