30 May 2025 – Circus Machines

I’m in the early stages of developing what will become a group machine performance. It will be based on the industrial welding robot lines that are common in automotive manufacturing. These cells will often have 4-45 robots inside a single perimeter fence area. As a result of these close spaces the robots will extend vertically as they operate standing tall and moving in a way that resembles a forest of trees bending in the wind.

Applying for residencies and recruiting others into my silliness means I’ve been looking back on the previous manufacturing circus projects. Here’s a summary!
