Machine Love
Ever seen a chicken fry potatoes in an art space? Us neither. Not until day four of Six Days of New Media, an exhibition project by David Barbarino, Friederike Hamann, Moritz Hirsch, Pola Sieverding and Ulrich Urban. The evening was dedicated to sculpture and installation. Baldur Burwitz presented »Heisser Feger« (loosely translated: »hot chick«) – a huge chicken robot with a motion sensor, dropping fried croquettes onto the art space floor.

Neither had we ever seen… …a barrow coming to life by being transformed into a speaking mini motorcycle, reading passages of artist Nik Nowak’s China trip diary.

Nor a picture rewarding its viewers by playing the guitar, as seen in Claus Elzholz’s installation.

On the same evening, we stumbled over a motion sensored drawing machine at the promising new MMX Open Art Venue by Patrick Timm.

Machines everywhere. Seems like they’re taking over art as well. At least they did a good job!
