a robot as a tourist with a little help of a friend 1

developed for and realized during the art residency and conference:
"Field_Notes -- Cultivating Grounds"
26.9-2.10 Kilpisjärvi Biological Station Lapland/ Finland
http://bioartsociety.fi/field_notes/

This autonomous robot is solar powered and has a very simple motion algorithm. I use this robot tourist, as I call
it, to explore the biological milieu by letting it run around in the
surrounding area. Shooting pictures and videos triggers in this combination of artificiality and nature a more
emotional view on the robotic creature and the surrounding environement.
