Grace State Machines
with Bill Vorn & Jonathan Villeneuve
2007–2009
Grace State Machines is a Robotic Art performance project. The name of the project is inspired by a virtual “state of grace” that could be expressed by automatons and other finite state machines. Through this project, the close relationship between the real physical human body and machine body is expressed – the inner perceptions of both entities and how they intertwine as they interact and exchange in an intimate dialog between the organic and the artefact.
