AutoGene

Busby Berkeley choreographed dancers to mimic the motions of machines and modern inventions. “AutoGene” is the flipside of this.

It’s a simple, aesthetic-looking robot composed of eight modified umbrellas mounted in a circular pattern. A cocktail of air hoses and electrical cables join these umbrellas to a central computer which enables “AutoGene” to produce a choreographed dance to “Singin' in the Rain” that erodes the machine’s mechanical qualities and transforms the mundane umbrellas into magical animated objects.
