Fish-Bird: Autonomous Interactions in a New Media Arts Setting

Fish-Bird is an interactive kinetic artwork in which two robots in the form of wheelchairs communicate with each other, and with their audience, through movement and written text. The research project and associated media art installation is the result of collaboration between a new media artist and robotics researchers. It confronts continuing issues and concerns regarding dialogue between humans and machines.
