A four-metre long measuring rod with 80 points of light reveals cross-sections through WiFi networks using a photographic technique called light-painting.

How do robots see the world? How do they gather meaning from our streets, cities, media and from us?
This is an experiment in found machine-vision footage, exploring the aesthetics of the robot eye.
This film was made for the HABITAR exhibition at Laboral :
« This new urban landscape is no longer predicated solely on architecture and urbanism. These disciplines now embrace emerging methodologies that bend the physical with new measures, representations and maps of urban dynamics such as traffic or mobile phone flows. Representations of usage patterns and mapping the life of the city amplify our collective awareness of the urban environment as a living organism. These soft and invisible architectures fashion sentient and reactive environments. »

« Tabaimo is a contemporary artist who makes installations using computer-generated animation. Her animated works are derived from her drawings. Since her 1999 graduation piece, Japanese Kitchen, caught the attention of the art world, she has become an internationally well-known artist and has continued creating installations. At the age of 26 she assumed the post as professor at University of Art and Design, Kyoto and she took part in the Sao Paulo Biennale and the Yokohama Triennale. Such achievements at a young age have resulted in turning her into a legend.

Du petit gazouillis de moineau au grand cri de corbeau, tous les piaillements d’oiseaux prennent forme au fil des pages d’un cahier. D’abord discrètement puis de manière envahissante …
