"Spina Family" - Hunting Tophies by France Cadet

Spina Family is one of the 13 hunting robotic trophies from France Cadet. It is composed of 13 tails, which are however not immediately identifiable as such. These simple organisms can suggest tails, but fingers as well, or tongues.. or a spine.
It is more about the idea of simple animals living in swarm (wagging up and down, only speed and amplitude are variable) generating a more complex group behaviour.
As a viewer approaches, a short pre-programmed sequence is played, such as a dialogue between the different tails, or a group behaviour such as a wave, or a more rhythmic sequence.
