Prix Ars Electronica Exhibition
No Man’s Land
Louis-Phillipe Demers, Bill Vorn/Can
One of the forefront aesthetic choices of this work is the evocation of life through abstract, even displaced, bare inorganic skeletons. The concept of replication, therefore a large number of machine-organisms, is fundamental. Demers/Vorn invite the viewers to immerse in this simulated world and to consider a robotic ecosystem. The robotic species are designed following their behaviors in the habitat and they are metaphors of natural societies: parasites, scavengers, coloniers, herds etc. The robot-organisms produce movement, light and sound as their *living* functions or invented metabolisms.
