Science Week.
MediaLab Madrid. Conde Duque Centre for Contemporary Culture.
4-9, November 2002

Workshop and conferences held within the framework of the Science Week. Invitation by Karin Ohlenschläger. MediLab Madrid. Conde Duque Centre for Contemporary Culture.

Workshop given jointly with Gerald Kogler. Using the LEGO MindStorms team we investigated the concepts of robotics, control and interference between the human sphere and the technological sphere, telerobotics and the flow of information. We propose the construction of small animated and independent robots through programming, with the use of the LEGO “smart brick”, microprocessors, contact sensors, light sensors and motion sensors.

A series of lectures was also organised with the participation of artists and specialists in art and robotics Moisés Mañas, Viente Matellán Olivera and Carlos Corpa.
