HOLY Robot
HOLY Robot
2 October - 2008 - 11 January 2009presented at the 3d International Biennial of Contemporary Art in the Centro Andaluz de Arte Contemporáneo (CAAC) in Seville (SPAIN). The installation 'bios [bible]' consists of an industrial robot, which writes down the bible on rolls of paper. The machine draws the calligraphic lines with high precision. Like a monk in the scriptorium it creates step by step the text.Starting with the old testament and the books of Moses ‘bios [bible]’ produces within seven month continuously the whole book. All 66 books of the bible are written on rolls and then retained and presented in the library of the installation.‘bios [bible]’ is focussing on the questions of faith and technical progress. The installation correlates two cultural systems which are fundamental for societies today – religion and scientific rationalism. In this contexts scripture has all times an elementary function, as holy scripture or as formal writing of knowledge.In computer technology 'basic input output system' (bios) designates the module which basicaly coordinates the interchange between hard- and software. Therefore it contains the indispensable code, the essential program writing, on which every further program can be established. More images after the break...
ABOUT robotlabrobotlab works with industrial robots in public spaces. It explores the relationship between man and machine by means of installations and experformances.robots will play a significant role in future societies and invade more and more human domains. The most prevalent robots today are the industrial robots. Their number is rapidly increasing worldwide and has already exceeded one million. With continual development their mechanical and electronical capabilities grow. The direct coupling of precise mechanics and information processing electronics results in a powerful technology which is discussed in the sciences under the subjects of 'artificial intelligence' and 'artificial life'.Up until now, people haven't had the chance to meet robots neither in public nor in private spaces. robots are mostly situated in special industrial spaces, therefore humans do not have contact with them, do not experience how they behave and do not know how to behave correctly with them. Today social patterns between man and machines do not exist. Instead there are only fictional images from science fiction literature and films.robotlab creates experimental situations in exhibition spaces, in which the public has the opportunity to interact with robots. The massive appearance of the robots, the movements and the machine sounds effect the visitor, are interpretated individually and evoke ideas which may lay in the field of practical purposes as well as formulate an utopian image of a future culture with man and machine.robotlab is founded 2000 by Matthias Gommel, Martina Haitz and Jan Zappe. The free artist group is associated to the Institute of Visual Media at the ZKM - Center of Art and Media Karlsruhe, Deutschland.

Fighter Motorcycle at Neiman Marcus
Maybe I have 007 on the brain because of the new Quantum of Solace movie but this Limited Edition Fighter Motorcycle certainly strikes me as something Bond-worthy (I'm sure the photo above has something to do with that impression too). The raw, bare-bones design in nothing but silver steel and black rubber makes for a minimalistic but still "bad ass" look, which the bike backs up with an exciting array of high-tech features and the ability to fly down the highway at speeds up to 190mph.

The Rachel Zoe Project
I wasn't going to watch this show because when watching the ads for it, I found that her voice made me cringe! Her affected accent just sounds soo put on!
However I decided that in the name of research I had to watch it and after getting past her annoying accent, I found Zoe to be a very interesting person.
What would have been even more interesting is if they spent some time on her background and history, how she got started and how she has built up relationships with designers and clients.
Aside from that, I became fascinated with her staff. Her right-hand woman, Taylor proved herself to be a totally take-no-prisoners kind of woman. Over the top and difficult, especially when she had to manage new employee Brad. Obviously micro-management was out of the question; not such difficult task, but obviously something Taylor was unfamiliar with.
Which brings me to Brad.
Brad, Brad, Brad...what a pain in the arse! I would choose to let him sink too had I taken on such a useless article! For someone who came from Vogue and claims to have worked atgetting the job with Zoe for a year, boy has he got a lot to learn! No initiative, no motivation, no clue!
Too much whining, too much blaming everybody else and not enough action. Why couldn't he just take the bull by the horns and get on with the job? He is a lacky, a shit-kicker, somebody to take care of the jobs that Taylor hasn't time for. Something an ex-Vogue staffer would and should have had plenty of experience doing. Accept it and get on with it.
I spent 2 days at a magazine as a fashion assistant and no one told me what to do. I just got stuck in and did it. I mean it's not hard!
Take episode 2 for example which features the flood in the studio.
I was so angry with Brad's uselessness I was shouting at the TV screen in frustration! He's faffing about complaining that he didn't know what to do, that he couldn't control the weather, that it wasn't his fault that Zoe had a faulty studio. Boo-bloody-hoo! All that was required of him was to remove the wet clothing from the studio. Could he do it? Not a chance. Loser!
If it was me, I would have first removed the clothing from the studio, then seen to getting the clothes cleaned, cleaned up the flood while arranging for a builder come over to fix the problem. Not difficult.
But instead loser Brad flounders and fails. Sack him Zoe, SACK HIM!!!! Taylor is the keeper, not the inept and incompetent Brad!
Till next time...
