The Hosts: A Masquerade Of Improvising Automatons extends Wade Marynowskys development of custom-built robotics and interactive, performative media. In this installation, Marynowsky explores roboticist Masahiro Moris theory outlined in The Uncanny Valley (1970), which suggests that in designing humanoid robots one should not aim for total human likeness, but for an alternative to an uncanny appearance.

Sound; Wade Marynowsky, Additional vocals; Kusum Normoyle, Debra Petrovich, Ella Barclay, Kristina Harrison.

14 August - 12 September 2009. Performance Space at the Carriage Works, 245 Wilson Street, Sydney.
