I just came up with same idea for my diploma thesis.(my major is CIS)

I start to google the internet to find out if somebody else did it and I find this video.

Wonderful job.

@ayeressian Thanks and awesome. I am hoping more and more people make robots like this. If you ever want source code or information on where I get sturdy industrial strength components just send me an email. I can also tell you about loads of things that don't work, which may save you time. What are your initial ideas...

A robot can never do what a human can, real art is created by inspiration and hard work, not a robot disigned to make a brush patern...>.>

I hope your right. But the line is becoming blurry. I keep on working on the AI of my robot and it is awful close to my creative process. For example, in one of my algorithms I can type in "flower". It will then go to google images, search out a popular flower image with good contrast and color distribution, copy it to disk, then paint it. As it paints a camera looks to see how it is doing and makes adjustments as needed. That's not far off from my own personal artistic process.

Minus Story - Not sure of the name. They are on the Jagjaguwar label. Cool band.

@pvanarman If anyone still wants the name of this song- It's "Hold on" by Minus Story- thanks to your video I tracked it down on amazon and bought it :)

All this is is a printer with a single brush doing very static crap.

The art resides in the people who created this robot. Love it.

Erstanlich was Robotter heute können. Erschreckend gut!

Open your mind a bit. Art is in the eye of the beholder, not specific to the method by which the work is created. I am untrained, but if I pick up a pencil and draw a picture, is it art? Perhaps I'm just naturally talented (I'm not). How about an untalented, but highly trained painter? Does that make her creation any more artistic than mine? Think of the robot as the tool of the artist who created it, a complex paintbrush if that helps you.
