Description:
12/15/2020, 393*393 inch(performance stage), 4.17min, Kuka, performing
For my "Robotic Art" final at the Seoul Institute of the Arts, I created a performance art piece
that incorporated the robot arm Kuka. In my team there were Seongrok Jeong, Rigeon Jeong, and Junha Hwang, and
As the team leader, I was in charge of deriving concepts, organizing performances, programming for Kuka's
movements, editing music for performances, and playing the main character.
It would be a waste to incorpoate Kuka as static installation art,
so we made a lot of effort to show Kuka
and
the actor breathing together.
The story follows an amputee that uses Kuka as a prosthetic, and they go to a movie theatre.
Kuka suddenly malfunctions, and chaos insues. The performance ends with a twist, exploring the future of tech.
