Trouble in Paradise/Medi(t)ation of Survival (Opening)
July 8, 2010
The ‘Trouble in Paradise/Medi(t)ation of Survival‘ exhibition has opened at the National Museum of Modern Art, Kyoto. The opening was by invite only. Somehow (???) an invitation managed to fall into a photocopier and copies managed to get attached to crates of beer that were left outside the Museum to be taken freely. Rumor has [...]

After all that, TSA at Detroit airport partially disassembled our robots, then flung the parts they had taken off inside the shells and badly packed them up again. We didn’t know till we got to Kyoto. [...]

A short note on the ‘robots’…
July 1, 2010
Michael Hohl hit the nail on the head: “It reminds my of Buckminster Fuller’s ‘dymaxion car’ that could also turn on the spot (though without a tethering cable )” All 3 robots are hybrids of vehicles and products: TST_003 = Dualit + Airstream; RDO_002 = Bush TR82 + GM Futurliner and as Michael pointed out, [...]
