Robot Partner 0.2 - Automated Table Modification (2008)

Robot Partner 0.2 - Automated Table Modification

the piece was so far exhibited at: Ars Electronica08, ACE Kibla/Maribor, Galerija Kapelica/Ljubljana, Preview Berlin09,

The meta-project robot partner aims towards understanding the basics and relations of partnership, between living beings as well between humans and machines. The project deals with the contemporary ideals, ideas and images of improvement (“Fortschritt”). The goal of the project is to re-do the development of an automated service system by artistic approach. It's not for finding answers but for marking questions ... The living table installation on one hand shows possible applications of service-automation in everyday life with a focus on the absurdity of the result, on the other hand with a focus on the poetic moment which emerges out of this absurdity and thereby offers the spectator a possibility for reflexion about his own position.
