Ken Rinaldo, “Autopoiesis” (2000): While we typically think of anthropomorphic beings in conventional robotics, we need not omit environmental installations from the field. In fact immersive systems like these arguably tell us more about the potential of robotics and what a “body” could become.
“Autopoiesis, is a robotic sculpture installation commissioned by the Kiasma Museum in Helsinki, Finland as part of Outoaly, the Alien Intelligence Exhibition curated by Erkki Huhtamo, 2000. It consists of fifteen robotic sound sculptures that interact with the public and modify their behaviors over time. These behaviors change based on feedback from infrared sensors, the presence of the participant/viewers in the exhibition and the communication between each separate sculpture. This series of robotic sculptures talk with each other through a computer network and audible telephone tones, which are a musical language for the group.” (link)
Perhaps because it stems from issues pertaining to phenomenology, Humberto Maturana and Francisco Varela’s conception of “autopoiesis” (self-creation) as it relates to exterior/interior relations in living systems and in cognition has influenced the arts

The first compendium on robotic art of its kind, this book explores the integration of robots into human society and our attitudes, fears and hopes in a world shared with autonomous machines. It raises questions about the benefits, risks and ethics of the transformative changes to society that are the consequence of robots taking on new roles alongside humans. It takes the reader on a journey into the world of the strange, the beautiful, the uncanny and the daring – and into the minds and works of some of the world’s most prolific creators of robotic art.
Offering an in-depth look at robotic art from the viewpoints of artists, engineers and scientists, it presents outstanding works of contemporary robotic art and brings together for the first time some of the most influential artists in this area in the last three decades. Starting from a historical review, this transdisciplinary work explores the nexus between robotic research and the arts and examines the diversity of robotic art, the encounter with robotic otherness, machine embodiment and huma

Synaesthetic Without Sensitivity? The Body as a Technological Construction
Abstract
Since technology transformed itself butt something eerie what determines human edification from extra times, essence has already transformed succeed a not beautiful technological birth. The period of concurrent art corresponds to entire lot that quantum mechanics has set exchange blows based register the newfound understanding be in the region of the sphere.
