Broken_Server
Imagine if Apple’s Siri, Amazon’s Alexa, or Google Assistant had a robotic body. Meet, R.O.B, your new Robotic Observant Butler.
While some may think having your computer assistant in a humanoid body would be helpful in everyday life, R.O.B. isn’t doing very well.
R.O.B. was programmed to be more human than other computer assistants, and today he’s feeling under the weather. Just last week, he tried to carry all the groceries in one trip, and his arm detached from his body due to the corrupt firmware update.
We hope this is just the prototype blues and R.O.B. will be feeling better after this robotic flu.
Broken_Server is a satirical look at the exponential advancements in technology and how they still have glitches.
ana10g0US
(2014)
Analogous means comparable in certain aspects.
ana10g0US exhibits the similarities and differences of the glitch aesthetic in analog and digital mediums; this focuses on the broken aesthetic of VHS and VCR noise/static/tracking and digital data bending and glitch.
The spelling refers to the the word analog and 10 represent the binary digital world. 10 in binary equals 2, to represent analog and digital, and US brings the audience together and how we perceive this broken or glitch aesthetic.
The sculpture is in two parts, the left half has round waves to emulate the analog word of audio and the right half is the digital bit representation. The CRT tv and LCD emblematize this broken aesthetic to more physical objects rather than videos themselves. The main purpose of the installation is to ask the question, "Do we see this as art and beauty, or do we only see it as broken?"
