For the first program on the first season entirely of her own making, San Francisco Ballet artistic director Tamara Rojo is assuming a Diaghilevian role. She’s not only chosen the choreographer but has also designated the music-maker, lighting team, and even the story. The full-length Mere Mortals concerns the catastrophically curious Pandora, of the infamous box. Canadian choreographer Aszure Barton, whose gift for explosive, impulsive gesture suits her heroine, joins Sam Shepard aka Floating Points, a popular mixer of low-key electronic dance music, and the Spanish duo known as Hamill Industries, specialists in “research-driven experimental storytelling.” With the aid of AI, Hamill meshes trippy video with dancer-motion and the DJ’s strobe-like beats (on, off, on, off) for the proverbial “immersive experience.” Tech-savvy San Franciscans and robots should eat it up. —Apollinaire Scherr
