Johannes Braumann, Bürgermeister Klaus Luger More than 200 years ago at the outset of the Industrial Revolution, humankind began to use machines to mass-produce products. This machinery was designed to perform certain steps in the manufacturing process and to replace human laborers in particular jobs. Now, following assembly line work and computerization, industry has now arrived at Version 4.0 and begun to interconnect machines in networks. But deep inside these manmade tools, there’s a fair amount of artistic potential, and this is amply illustrated by the new “Creative Robotics“ exhibition at the Ars Electronica Center. In his capacity as visiting professor, Johannes Braumann heads the robot laboratory of Kunstuniversität Linz and, together with KUKA, developed the installation “Robotic Calligraphy”, which for one month drew portraits at the Ars Electronica Center, using a special, “robotic” style that would have been impossible to emulate by hand.
