The middle finger exoskeleton is a response to political bullshit. Powered by a servomotor and Google’s speech recognition capabilities, it helps its wearer react to a predefined set of phrases and sentences by flipping the bird. The 3D printed device is adjustable to the wearer, and so is the vocabulary, which – in the advent of alternative facts and post-factual politics – may never be complete. Overall, it's an attempt to sensitize the person wearing it, who may already be stuck in indifference to the empty phrases of the post-truth political rhetoric. https://www.behance.net/danielcseh

The Black Box is a robotic installation, a reference to Vilém Flusser’s concept of the technology that intentionally conceals its inner workings. Through a metaphor to this concept, the participant borrows the body and the senses of a strictly non-anthropomorphic robot, and wanders in a maze closed off from the outside world, unaware of their own appearance, capabilities, or scale. This seemingly preserves the increasingly dated assumption, that robots are mere prosthetics, meanwhile, it fulfils the transhumanist ideal of organic and inorganic minds melding. The makeshift symbiosis of flesh...

In 1888, Kodak’s brand new and super simple cameras hit the market, along with their film developing service. “You press the button, we do the rest”, went the advertisement, marking the first time in history when the photographer was not required to actually understand what went on behind the shutter. This trend has endured for more than a century, as today only the engineers of the producing company understand the inner workings of imaging devices. While this is considered normal, the great majority of users have absolutely no idea how the captured light ends up on a remote screen as an im...

We transfer physical systems into virtual ones. But what happens if this process is turned the other way around? Aerosol is an experiment, which investigates exactly this by using a particle system. The fascinating thing about a particle system is the emergent appearance. A taut fabric surface gets formed into an undulated landscape by using a grid of 16 servo motors attached to the fabric. Due to gravitation a certain amount of small iron balls placed on top of the fabric are set in motion. While observing the iron balls, you will notice individual behavior patterns in terms of the iron ba...
