Outerspace
OuterspaceReactive robotic creature, 2004
Outerspace is a reactive robotic creature with animal-like behaviour. It was developed in collaboration with Andre Stubbe. Outerspace's fundamental motivation for any behaviour is based on curiosity, the desire to explore the surrounding space looking for contact. Touch it, play with it and watch its behaviour.
The project is at the edge of art and design involving various aspects of industrial design, physical computing & artificial intelligence. It was developed on the brief “Lustobjekt”, object of pleasure & desire, in the Digital Media Class at the Berlin University of the Arts.
Awards
Outerspace received an Honorary Mention Interactive Art at the Prix Ars Electronica 2006 and is the winner of the Europrix Top Talent Award 2006.
