We are all chimeras.

Contemporary robotics in the artistic playing field.

I'm just about to graduate from a fine art degree in Bristol UK, and I'm fascinated by the boundary between art and technology.

Heartbeats tapped for power generator implant..

While the amount of energy generated is small, Wang thinks he can scale up its output enough to power simple implantable nanosensors – blood pressure or glucose sensors, for instance – that have modest power requirements and don’t need a continuous supply.

Heidi Kumao

Portrait of a Girl: A motorized pair of girl’s legs takes the emotional temperature of the room and makes her presence known through loud (she’s wearing tap shoes) and erratic stomping and tapping on household furniture. Responding to the presence of viewers, this girl alternates between aggressive, attention-getting tantrums and seemingly uncontrolled shaking and jerking.

Heidi Kumao is a interdisciplinary artist who works with kinetic robots to emphasise emotional and interpersonal atmospheres. Her use of materials is pertinent and sophisticated. Using words like “misbehaving” she’s inviting an empathetic response from her audience, while keeping the mechanical aesthetic prominent.
