Given my interest in machines that look like machines, but still interact with humans, it should come as no surprise that I like the work of Bill Vorn. Of his current projects two are of particular relevance:

  • Grace State Machines – a performance in which a human dances with a machine
  • Protozoic Machine – a machine built to interact with people, but deliberately designed to look like a machine, and not like any living being

I’m sure that I’ll write more about these projects soon, and might be able to visit Bill Vorn towards the end of this year.
